  • Title: Incidence and clinical importance of bone marrow eosinophilia in Hodgkin's disease (BNLI Report No 29). British National Lymphoma Investigation.
    Author: Macintyre EA, Vaughan Hudson B, Vaughan Hudson G, Jelliffe AM, Linch DC.
    Journal: J Clin Pathol; 1987 Mar; 40(3):245-6. PubMed ID: 3558856.
    Abstract:
    A retrospective study of 136 bone marrow aspirates was undertaken before treatment to evaluate the importance of bone marrow eosinophilia in Hodgkin's disease. This occurred in 28 patients (21%) but did not correlate with age, sex, B symptoms, histopathological type or peripheral blood count. It also had no effect on survival. Bone marrow eosinophilia, therefore, seems to represent a common but non-specific reaction to Hodgkin's disease.
