Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to analyse the spectrum of bone marrow aspiration and biopsy results and their clinicohaematological profile. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective descriptive study was conducted from 1st September 2017 to 31st August 2018. All bone marrows examined during his period were included. Demographic profile including age, sex, clinical history etc. were analysed from the records available in the bone marrow register which is maintained in Pathology department, Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal. A total of 94 bone marrows were included. Appropriate statistical analysis was applied. RESULTS Check marrows (25.88%) was the most common reason for bone marrow examinations. Acute leukaemias (18.82%) were the most haematological disorder encountered followed by nutritional dual deficiency anaemia (5.88%). CONCLUSION The results of this study will assist in future planning for installation of special tests such as flow cytometry and molecular laboratory. Finally bone marrow aspiration (BMA) and bone marrow biopsy (BMB) are two separate but complimentary techniques which are required for diagnosis of various haematological disorders.
