RBC Morphology
RBC MorphologyDifferential ListPossible Concurrent ResultsComments
Microcytosis
*Iron-deficiency anemia, portocaval shunt, copper or pyridoxine deficiency, anemia of chronic diseaseDecreased MCV, MCHC
Increased RDW
Hypochromasia
Poorly or non-regenerative
May be normal in Asian dog breeds
Macrocytosis
1. Immature erythrocytes
2. FeLV, myelodysplasia, myeloproliferative disorder
3. Macrocytosis of poodles
4. Hereditary stomatocytosis 1. Regenerative anemia
2.
3. No anemia
Increased MCV
Increased nucleated RBCs
Increased H-J bodies
Hypersegmented neutrophils
4. stomatocytes
Chondrodysplasia in Alaskan malamute
Hypertrophic gastritis in Drentse partrijshond
No clinical disease in miniature schnauzers
3. Probably hereditary, no clinical signs
Polychromasia
1. Extravascular hemolysis
2. Acute Blood loss
3. Hemangiosarcoma
4. Intravascular hemolysis
1. Regenerative anemia
Bilirubinuria
Bilirubinemia
Neutrophilic leukocytosis
2. Regenerative anemia
Decreased PP
Normal morphology
3. Regenrative anemia
Decreased PP
Schistocytes
Acanthocytes
4. Regenerative anemia
Hemoglobinuria
Hemoglobinemia
Agglutination Occurs in liver, spleen, bone marrow
4. Complement mediated,
Bacterialtoxins, Parasites,
Hereditary, Other chemicals/toxins
Hypochromasia
1. Iron-deficiency anemia in dogs1. Increased MCV
Increased RDW
Microcytosis
Keratocytes
Schistocytes
Acanthocyte
1. Hepatic Lipidosis in cats
2. Microangiopathy: hemangiosarcoma, lymphosarcoma of liver/spleen, hematoma 1. Icterus
2. Regenerative anemia
Keratocytes
Schistocytes
Nucleated RBCs
Keratocyte
1. Iron-deficiency anemia
1. Increased MCV
Increased RDW
Microcytosis
Keratocytes
Schistocytes
Schistocyte
1. DIC
2. Vascular neoplasms; hemangiosarcoma
3. Iron-deficiency anemia due to oxidative injury
1. Thrombocytopenia
Regenerative anemia
2. Regenerative anemia
Keratocytes
Acanthocytes
3. Increased MCV
Increased RDW
Microcytosis
Keratocytes
Schistocytes
Echinocytes (Burr cells)
1. Artifact/ crenation
2. Renal disease
3. Lymphoma
4. Rattlesnake bite (type 3)
5. Chemotherapy in dogs
6. Exercise in horses2. Increased BUN, creatinine
decreased urine specific gravity
Spherocyte
1. Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia
2. Mismatched blood transfusion
3. Zinc toxicosis
4. Bee stings
1. Regenerative or pre-regenerative anemia
AgglutinationNot appreciated in in species other than dogs
3. Usually causes Heinz body anemia
Eccentrocyte
(no picture; lopsided-looking cell with most hemoglobin on one side)1. Oxidative damage
2. Glucose-6-dehydrogenase deficiency1. Heinz bodies
2. Heinz bodies
Codocyte/leptocyte aka target cell
Little clinical significance
1. Artifact of excessive EDTA
2. Increased serum cholesterol in dogs
Stomatocyte
1. Hereditary stomatocytosis1. Chondrodysplasia in Alaskan malamute
Hypertrophic gastritis in Drentse partrijshond
No clinical disease in miniature schnauzers
Heinz Bodies
1. Diabetes mellitus in cats
2. Lymphoma
3. Hyperthyroidism
4. Oxidative drugs and compounds
May cause intravascular hemolysis( severe hemolytic anemia if many RBCs are affectedCaused by oxidative denaturation of hemoglobin
4. Onions, garlic, Brassica sp plants, dried or wilted red maple leaves, benzocaine, zinc, copper, acetominophen, propfol, naphthalene, vitamin K, methylene blue, propylene glycol
Basophilic stippling
1. Immature RBCs in ruminants, cats, dogs
