Case report of the extramedullary hematopoiesis presented as a hypervascular intracranial mass

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2013
Thalassemia is a hematologic disorder that causes ineffective hematopoiesis and is related to severe anemia, iron overload, extramedullary hematopoiesis, and hepatomegaly. Hepatomegaly is related to significant extramedullary hematopoiesis.
