Macrocytic anaemia and megaloblastic anaemia: Difference between revisions

Created page with "'''Macrocytic anaemia''' is a form of anaemia characterised by macrocytosis (MCV > 100 fL). '''Megaloblastic anaemia''' is the most common subtype of macrocytic anaemia characterised by decreased DNA synthesis in haematopoietic stem cells, causing RBCs to be larger, oval, and blast-like, and neutrophils to be hypersegmented. The most common cause of megaloblastic anaemia is folate and B12 deficiency. == Etiology ==..."
