This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Hematology Case Study 3, A 4-year-old boy is seen by his pediatrician for easy bruising, joint pain, and leg pain; red dots on the skin that do not blanch; and hepatosplenomegaly. The complete blood count (CBC) reveals an elevated white blood cell count (50,000/mm3), a low hemoglobin level (anemia), and thrombocytopenia (low platelet count). Examination of the peripheral smear of the blood shows numerous cells with a high nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio, and fine chromatin; the complete blood count shows anemia and thrombocytopenia. suggest What is the most likely diagnosis? Group B, A 4-year-old boy is seen by his pediatrician for easy bruising, joint pain, and leg pain; red dots on the skin that do not blanch; and hepatosplenomegaly. The complete blood count (CBC) reveals an elevated white blood cell count (50,000/mm3), a low hemoglobin level (anemia), and thrombocytopenia (low platelet count). Examination of the peripheral smear of the blood shows numerous cells with a high nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio, and fine chromatin; the complete blood count shows anemia and thrombocytopenia. suggest What other investigations need to be done?
