Insufficient volume. But we&amp;rsquo;re not used to being discouraged. We processed it. The scattergram was concerning. We took it for a leukocyte differential count. And there&amp;hellip; there was everything. I don&amp;rsquo;t even know how to describe it. Ultimately, the blood was rejected, assuming preanalytical influence (small blood volume, cell-platelet aggregates in the smear, nuclear pyknosis). What do you think this could be? We really don&amp;rsquo;t want to miss some rarity due to our intellectual imperfection. Oh, by the way, the slides were not used for urine or gynecology. Excluded 👌

Artifact? Filaria? Romanowsky stain. May-Grünwald fixation. The first photo is ×1000. The second photo is an enlargement in a photo editor.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
