Anemia

Shortened platelet survival in acute promyelocytic leukemia.

A platelet kinetic study in 2 patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) demonstrated that the platelet survival was characteristically shortened. These findings suggest increased platelet consumption during the process of DIC in APL.

Blood Platelets

Use of technetium-99m as a radioactive label to study migratory patterns of leukocytes.

Technetium-99m had been used as a radioactive label to study the migratory patterns of neutrophils. In a previous in vitro study, neutrophils were labeled with Tc-99m and infused into patients with and without various hematological disorders. Increased pulmonary localization was detected by scintillation camera within 10 min; this decreased gradually within 3 hr. Accumulation was seen in the liver and spleen at 3 hr. The same results were noted by using neutrophils labeled with Tc-99m sulfur colloid. In a patient with severe ulceration in the oral cavity, due to acute leukemia, Tc-99m-labeled transfused neutrophils that were collected by filtration leukopheresis were concentrated in the infected lesions.
