    Abstract:
    From the 24 March 1988 to the 15 June 1989, we noticed the peripheric and medullar haematologic modifications of 46 patients infected by HIV, classified in the group IV of CDC. The haematologic modifications found are: a peripheric cytopenia with a constant anemia often serious, a leuconeutropenia, a mild or missing lymphopenia. In comparison: the bone marrow is often rich in the different lineage with more often a sharp lymphoplasmocytal reaction, sometime very characteristic on the cytological side. 2 myeloid leukemia were diagnosed by participation of the myelogram. At least, the proteinogram showed a major polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemy sometimes monoclonal.
