erthrocyte is a red blood cell and leukocyte is white bood cells

Anemia is a decrease in the amount of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the peripheral blood. Sickle cell anemia is when the hemoglobin molecules are abnormal and red cells are crescentic/sickle shaped and tend to rupture.

defect in hemoglobin formation, occurs in people who live near the mediterranean Sea, Italian, greek sicilian

leukemia,lymphoma, infectious mononucleosis

transverse radiolucent bands at the metaphyseal ends of the long bones, most common with the knee, ankles,and writsts. some patchy moth-eaten appearances occur

• lymphoma=mediastinal lymph node enlargement
• leukemia= splenomagly

Purpura, aka. thrombocytopenia

pituitary, adrenal, thyroid and parathyroid glands.

Cushings syndrome, hypoadrenalism,

Hyperpituitarism(gigantism), Hypopituitarism

hyperthroidism, hypothyroidism

Radioactive iodine scanning

• Hyperparathyroidism= results form the excessive production of the thyroid hormone, more common in females
• Hypoparathyroidism= results form any structural or functional abnormality that leads to an insufficent synthesis of thyroid hormone.

insulin dependent and non-insulin dependent

pituitary gland

• hyperpituitarism=excess of growth hormone, results in gigantism and acromegaly, results in thickening of the heel pads and bones of the skull thickened
• hypopituitarism=decreased function of the pituitary gland causing dwarfisim

Hyperpituitarism?

is more likely to develop in third and forth decades and more in woman, (form of hyperthyroidism)

atherosclerosis disease, ischemia, calcifications, masses

an inherited anomaly of blood coagulation that appears clincally only in males.

• Hodgkins is most common and originate in the lymph nodes
• Non-Hodgkins are of extranodal orgin or orginate in other parts of the body and less common
