The differential diagnostic possibilities are much fewer when the spleen is "massively enlarged," palpable more than 8 cm below the left costal margin or its drained weight is ≥1000 g (Table 60-3). The vast majority of such patients will have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, hairy cell leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, or polycythemia vera.

Erythrocyte counts may be normal decreased thalassemia major syndromes SLE cirrhosis with portal hypertension or increased polycythemia vera . Granulocyte counts may be normal decreased Felty s syndrome congestive splenomegaly leukemias or increased infections or inflammatory disease myeloproliferative disorders . Similarly the platelet count may be normal decreased when there is enhanced sequestration or destruction of platelets in an enlarged spleen congestive splenomegaly Gaucher s disease immune thrombocytopenia or increased in the myeloproliferative disorders such as polycythemia vera. The CBC may reveal cytopenia of one or more blood cell types which should suggest hypersplenism. This condition is characterized by splenomegaly cytopenia s normal or hyperplastic bone marrow and a response to splenectomy. The latter characteristic is less precise because reversal of cytopenia particularly granulocytopenia is sometimes not sustained after splenectomy. The cytopenias result from increased destruction of the
