In 1953, Thomson and Marson described a case with fibromyomas of the uterus associated with polycythemia in which, after hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, the polycythemia rapidly disappeared. Initially, this patient had a red blood cell count of 7,600,000 per cubic millimeter, a hemoglobin level of 140 gm. per 100 cc, and a total blood

461 consecutive inborn babies, delivered during the period September 1993-March 1994 were subjected to a microhematocrit assessment at 6 hours of age to determine the incidence of polycythemia. 47 babies (inborn and out born), admitted to the neonatal unit with confirmed polycythemia were studied for clinical and laboratory abnormalities.

Polycythemia vera is a sporadic myeloproliferative disorder of increased red blood cell mass affecting multiple organ systems. Associated thrombosis, hemorrhaging, and hyperviscosity commonly result in neurological manifestations, sometimes in the form of chorea and ballism.

Polycythemia and Thrombocytosis
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2016Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are diseases of excess cell proliferation from bone marrow precursors. Two classic MPNs, polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocytosis (ET), are conditions of excess proliferation of red blood cells and platelets, respectively.

Twenty-two smokers with elevated hematocrits (mean, 54 per cent) had elevated blood carboxyhemoglobin (mean, 11.6 per cent; normal, less than 1 per cent) and a "left-shifted" oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve (mean P50, 21.6 +/- 2.3 [+/- S.D.] torr; normal, 26.7 +/- 1.1).

Polycythemia vera and other primary polycythemias
Current Opinion in Hematology, 2005Diagnosis and therapy of polycythemia vera are controversial since the molecular basis of polycythemia vera remains unknown. Distinguishing between polycythemia vera and other polycythemic disorders can be very challenging. The purpose of this review is to discuss the recent progress in this area and critically review the published data in context of ...

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2003
The differential diagnosis of an elevated hematocrit and the criteria for the diagnosis of polycythemia vera present little or no problem; however, there is not a consensus on therapy. Spivak likened this to a conundrum--"an intricate and difficult problem." Nonetheless, it can be argued that on the basis of the following criteria--life expectancy, the

Anoxemia secondary to polycythemia and polycythemia secondary to anoxemia
The American Journal of Medicine, 1955Abstract Pulmonary function studies on a patient with polycythemia, arterial anoxemia and CO 2 retention showed that lung volumes, distribution of inspired air, distribution of pulmonary capillary blood, alveolar-capillary diffusion and mechanics of breathing were within normal limits.
