Abstract: | 1. Four patients with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia and one patient withpolycythemia vera and myeloid metaplasia were studied with Fe59, Cr51 andglycine-2-C14.2. Three of the patients with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia had activesplenic, hepatic or renal erythropoiesis. One had deficient erythropoiesis.3. The red cell life span was short in all of the patients with agnogenicmyeloid metaplasia, definite splenic sequestration occurring in two patients.The red cell life span was normal in the patient with polycythemia vera andmyeloid metaplasia.4. The possible indications for splenectomy were discussed. Submitted on July 25, 1958 Accepted on October 12, 1958 |
