Spectrum of ET and PV bone marrow features in 155 bone marrow biopsies with clustered enlarged “PV” megakaryocytes of PV patients from the PVSG 01 study ranging from an ET bone marrow picture (A left and middle B): arrows indicate the same area of clustered pleiomorphic megakaryocytes) to a classical PV bone marrow picture (A right) with trilinear eryhtro/megakaryo/granulocytic (EMG) hyperplasia.

An ET picture was observed in 10 PV, an ET/PV bone marrow picture with increased cellularity (60-80%) was detected in 45 PV, and a hypercellular (80-100%) PV picture was recorded in 90 evaluable bone marrow biopsies of 155 PV patients, who had a documented increased red cell mass in the PVSG 01 study [11].
