Abstract
Extensive bone marrow necrosis is an unusual histologic finding most commonly identified after autopsy. We describe a patient with poorly differentiated lymphocytic lymphoma who manifested pancytopenia and marrow necrosis. Bone marrow scanning with 99mTc-sulfur-minicolloid provided a noninvasive means to assess the extent of marrow damage. Our patient's condition improved clinically following cytotoxic chemotherapy demonstrating that marrow necrosis may be associated with a treatable disease.Entities:
