I have a sample of patient, female, 4 years. She has a respiratory problem treated in a UCI. After that (not in UCI) show a hipereosiophilia with a WBC of 79.000. It was suggested de diganosis of toxocariosis and begin treatment. But the WBC increase; 120.000, 200.000. In the bone smears is not possible to see eosinoblast. Now the patient has a WBC of 132,000, and in the bone marrow the phenotyping show a cells of high FSC and SSC (was necessary to ajust FSC and SSC). The population of of more tha 85% of the total cell, was: CD3(-), CD16(-), CD56(-), CD41(-), CD61(-), CD4(-), CD19(-), CD14(-), CD34(-), TdT(-), CD10(-), MPO(-), CD33 dim (18.7%), CD13(+), HLA-DR(+). It was very difficult to analyse because the high autofluorescense and background. In the bone marrow and blood semears is possible to see many cells like eosinophils, but with a more soft staining of granules, and some of the granules also appears in the poles of the cells. any idea or comment? -- JUAN LUIS CASTILLO N.
