Haematopoiesis is the making of blood. Problems in haematopoiesis are numberous and the domain of hematology and hematopathology.

Normal haematopoiesis

Microscopic

One should see three cell lines:[1]

  • Erythroid cells.
  • Myeloid cells.
  • Megakaryocytes.

Extramedullary haematopoiesis

  • Abbreviated EMH.

General

  • In adults it is a compensatory mechanism for bone marrow dysfunction.

Cause:

Locations:[3]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Erythroid cells - esp. nucleated red blood cells.
  • Myeloid - granulocytes and granulocyte precursors.
  • Megakaryocytes - Large cells (50-100 μm) with abundant cytoplasm.
    • Make platelets.
