May-Hegglin anomaly belongs to a family of macrothrombocytopenias characterised by mutations in the MYH9 gene. It is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterised by various degrees of thrombocytopenia that may be associated with purpura and bleeding.

Cell description:
Size: 10-12 µm
Nucleus: kidney or U-shaped with clumped chromatin
Cytoplasm: acidophilic
neutrophil: fine reddish granulation
Cell division is not possible anymore and protein synthesis has stopped.

![Monocyte Monocyte](/fileadmin/media/f100/images/CellImages/Monocyte.png)
Cell description:
Size: 20 µm
Nucleus: kidney- to band-shaped
Cytoplasm: grey and clear with fine azurophilic granules
They are shortly located in the peripheral blood and then move into the tissue where they differentiate into macrophages. Function: Phagocytosis either of harmful pathogens or dead, dying or damaged cells from the blood.

The first microscopically identifiable cell of granulocytic cell line.
Cell description:
Size: 12-20 µm
Nucleus: large, round or slightly oval with diffuse chromatin pattern and often 1-5 nucleoli
Cytoplasm: pale blue and usually agranular, sometimes Auer rods visible
