We report a case of transient myeloproliferative disorder (TMD) involving the megakaryocytic lineage in a cytogenetically normal newborn infant. Prominent megakaryocytic phagocytosis in the bone marow was observed. This finding might suggest that TMD was due to a self-limiting malignant clone in myelopoiesis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
