Morphologic findings in essential thrombocytosis (ET) and myelofibrosis (MF).

(A), (B) A 39-year-old woman with JAK2V617F+ ET. Mildly hypocellular (50%) marrow (5× H&E) with balanced trilineage hematopoiesis featuring singly scattered and focally clustered normal sized and large megakaryocytes with widely spaced (‘staghorn’) nuclei (20× H&E). (C), (D) A 55-year-old woman with JAK2V617F+ MF. Markedly hypercellular (95% cellularity) marrow (5× H&E) with granulocytic hyperplasia and prominent aggregates of smaller cytologically atypical megakaryocytes with hypolobated ‘cloudlike’ nuclei (20× H&E).
