Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms. Methods: The patients were referred to the Hema...

Background: Pancytopenia is a manifestation of a wide range of disorders. The main prognostic factor for predicting outcome and response to treatment is based on the underlying cause.

Since it is a potential target organ of various disorders, evaluation of blood and bone marrow is an important component of any overall assessment studies. Bone marrow evaluation studies provide information about bone m...

Objective: To find out the frequency of involvement of bone marrow by non – haematological disorders in our institution and to evaluate the role of bone marrow aspiration and biopsy in diagnosing these disorders.
