Extramedullary hematopoiesis in cancer
Hematopoiesis can occur outside of the bone marrow during inflammatory stress to increase the production of primarily myeloid cells at extramedullary sites; this process is known as extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH).

Extramedullary Hematopoiesis of the Liver and Spleen [PDF]
Hematopoiesis is the formation of blood cellular components and, consequently, immune cells. In a more complete definition, this process refers to the formation, growth, maturation, and specialization of blood cells, from the hematopoietic stem cell ...

Background Thalassemia is a type of congenital hemoglobinopathy that falls into the category of hemolytic anemias. Extramedullary hematopoiesis is a complication of this disease, which is a mechanism to compensate for chronic anemia in these patients ...

Background Extramedullary hematopoiesis is the proliferation of hematopoietic cells outside bone marrow secondary to marrow hematopoiesis failure. Extramedullary hematopoiesis rarely presents as a mass-forming hepatic lesion; in this case, imaging-based ...

Unraveling the interplay between iron homeostasis, ferroptosis and extramedullary hematopoiesis
Iron participates in myriad processes necessary to sustain life. During the past decades, great efforts have been made to understand iron regulation and function in health and disease. Indeed, iron is associated with both physiological (e.g., immune cell

Spinal cord compression due to extramedullary hematopoiesis in patient with Beta thalassemia major
Extramedullary hematopoiesis can occur in patients with beta thalassemia major, which can lead to spinal cord compression. In such cases, the use of radiotherapy can be sufficient for the complete resolution of neurological symptoms.

Spinal cord compression by extramedullary hematopoiesis in beta‐thalassemia major
Extramedullary hematopoiesis is a normal compensatory reaction that can affect the epidural space, leading to spinal cord compression syndrome. MRI is the imaging method of choice for diagnosis and monitoring. Treatment is still controversial.

Extramedullary Hematopoiesis in Osteopetrosis
A 59-year-old African American man with a history of osteoporos is presented with left hip pain for 1 week. Computed tomography (CT) scan of pelvis and left femur showed non-displaced fracture of the left femoral neck and a lobulated presacral mass of size 5.5 × 4 cm (Figure).

Tumor-derived interleukin-1α and leukemia inhibitory factor promote extramedullary hematopoiesis
Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) expands hematopoietic capacity outside of the bone marrow in response to inflammatory conditions, including infections and cancer.
