  2. Autosplenectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autosplenectomy

    Under normal conditions, these nuclear remnants are removed from the blood by the spleen's filtering capabilities. Howell-Jolly bodies can be identified and quantified using a blood smear or by flow cytometry. [2] A high number of Howell-Jolly bodies is indicative of splenic hypofunction and potentially autosplenectomy.

  3. Howell–Jolly body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HowellJolly_body

    HowellJolly bodies are seen with markedly decreased splenic function. Common causes include asplenia (post-splenectomy) or congenital absence of spleen (right atrial appendage isomerism). Spleens are also removed for therapeutic purposes in conditions like hereditary spherocytosis , trauma to the spleen, and autosplenectomy caused by sickle ...

  4. Splenectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splenectomy

    Splenectomy patients typically have Howell-Jolly bodies [11] [12] and less commonly Heinz bodies in their blood smears. [13] Heinz bodies are usually found in cases of G6PD (Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase) and chronic liver disease. [14] A splenectomy also results in a greatly diminished frequency of memory B cells. [15]

  5. Howell-Jolly body-like inclusions - Wikipedia

    Howell-Jolly body-like inclusions (HJBLi) are a hematopathological finding of an inclusion arising from detached DNA nuclear fragment in white blood cells caused by dysplastic granulopoiesis. [1] The inclusion is aptly named for its similar appearance of the HowellJolly body in erythrocytes. [2] The term was coined in 1989. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancerous_micronuclei

    Theodor Boveri originally observed the fact that abnormal nuclear morphologies commonly occur in cancer.Micronuclei are also referred to Howell-Jolly bodies; discovered by hematologists William Henry Howell and Justin Marie Jolly in erythrocytes.

  8. Hereditary spherocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hereditary_spherocytosis

    On a blood smear, Howell-Jolly bodies may be seen within red blood cells. Primary treatment for patients with symptomatic HS has been total splenectomy, which eliminates the hemolytic process, allowing for normal hemoglobin, reticulocyte and bilirubin levels. The resultant asplenic patient is susceptible to encapsulated bacterial infections ...

  9. Spherocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherocytosis

    Partial splenectomy: Since the spleen is important for protecting against encapsulated organisms, sepsis caused by encapsulated organisms is a possible complication of splenectomy. [7] The option of partial splenectomy may be considered in the interest of preserving immune function. Research on outcomes is currently limited, [7] but favorable. [8]
