When do you see hematopoietic hyperplasia?

Hematopoietic hyperplasia is a reactive process that occurs in response to increased demand for blood cells. This can be seen in a variety of clinical settings, including:

* Physiological: Hematopoietic hyperplasia can occur in response to normal physiologic demands, such as pregnancy or high-altitude living.

* Pathological: Hematopoietic hyperplasia can also occur in response to a variety of pathological conditions, such as anemia, leukemia, and myelodysplastic syndromes.

In hematopoietic hyperplasia, the bone marrow increases its production of blood cells. This can lead to an increase in the number of circulating blood cells, as well as an increase in the size and cellularity of the bone marrow.

The clinical significance of hematopoietic hyperplasia depends on the underlying cause. In some cases, hematopoietic hyperplasia is a benign condition that does not require treatment. However, in other cases, hematopoietic hyperplasia can be a sign of a serious underlying medical condition.

If you are experiencing symptoms that may be related to hematopoietic hyperplasia, it is important to see your doctor for evaluation.
