HCD&R Module 3 Exam Questions and
Answers Graded A+
A patient has a WBC of 7.0 X103/µL The manual differential has 60% neutrophils.
What is a correct statement for the number of neutrophils? - Correct answer-
Relative and absolute are both normal
Pelger-Huet - Correct answer-Normal granulation
Bi-lobed nucleus
Normal Relative and Absolute Count
Looks different but does not affect function of the neutrophil
In the homozygous condition, can cause cognitive abnormalities in the patient
Left Shift - Correct answer-Toxic Granulation
Dohle bodies
Vaculation
Elevated Relative and Absolute White Count

, 3 to 5 lobed nucleus
At what cell stage can an eosinophil be differentiated?
"Dawn of neutrophilia" - Correct answer-Myelocyte
Thombocythemia - Correct answer-Platelet count over 1,000,000/µL with large and
bizarre forms
Myelofibrosis - Correct answer-Leukoerythroblastosis and tear drops; + silver or
reticulin stain
CML - Correct answer-+ Philadelphia chromosome; left shift and ↑ eos and basos
polycythemia vera - Correct answer-All cells lines increased and ↑ red cell mass
Mott cells, when seen? - Correct answer-Plasma cell with large vacuoles comprised
of immunoglobulins aka Russel Bodies. Seen in Multiple Myeloma.
Polycythemia Vera - Correct answer-Decreased Erythropoietin
Increased or Normal O2 Saturation
Increased RBC Mass
Other cell lines are affected
Means True Increase in all blood cell production
secondary polycythemia - Correct answer-Increased Erythropoietin
