a substance derived from red blood cells that have completed their life span) in the blood coagulopathy cytapheresis deep vein thrombosis any disease that deals with problems in blood coagulation ecchymosis elliptocyte elliptocytosis large bruise embolism embolus erythrocyte erythrocytosis blockage in a blood vessel caused by an embolus drug that prevents the coagulation of blood substance that causes the body to produce antibodies general term for a process, similar to dialysis, that draws blood, removes something from it, then returns the rest of the blood to the patient a disease caused by the body's immune system attacking the body's own healthy tissue apheresis to remove cellular material the formation of a blood clot in a vein deep in the body, most commonly the leg oval-shaped red blood cell condition characterized by an increase in the number of ovalshaped red blood cells mass of matter present in the blood red blood cell abnormal increase in the number of red blood cells hematocrit test to judge or separate the blood; used to determine the ratio of red blood cells to total blood volume hematology hematoma hematopoiesis hemoglobin study of the blood hemoglobinopathy hemolysis hemolytic anemia hemophilia disease of the hemoglobin hemorrhage hemostatic hepatosplenitis hepatosplenomegaly hyperbilirubinemia hypercholesterolemia hypercoagulability hyperlipidemia hypersplenism hypervolemia hypoperfusion hypovolemia immunocompromised excessive blood loss immunodeficiency immune system with decreased or compromised response to disease-causing organisms immunoglobulin immunologist immunology immunosuppression iron deficiency anemia ischemia protein that provides protection (immunity) against disease mass of blood within an organ, cavity, or tissue formation of blood cells iron-containing pigment in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the cells breakdown of blood cells anemia caused by the destruction of red blood cells condition in which the blood doesn't clot, thus causing excessive bleeding drug that stops the flow of blood inflammation of the liver and spleen enlargement of the liver and spleen excessive bilirubin in the blood excessive cholesterol in the blood increased ability of the blood to coagulate excessive fat in the blood increased spleen activity increased blood volume inadequate flow of blood decreased blood volume having an immune system incapable of responding normally and completely to a pathogen or disease specialist in the immune system study of the immune system reduction in the activity of the body's immune system anemia caused by inadequate iron intake blockage of blood flow to an organ laparosplenectomy leukemia surgical removal of the spleen through the abdomen leukocyte leukocytosis leukopenia lymphadenectomy lymphadenitis lymphadenopathy white blood cell lymphadenotomy lymphangiectasia incision into a lymph gland (node) lymphangiogram lymphangiography lymphangitis lymphedema lymphocyte lymphoma lymphopenia macrocytosis microcytosis myelodysplasia record of the study of lymph vessels myeloma myelopoiesis nephrosplenopexy neutropenia normocyte oligocythemia osteomyelitis pancytopenia perfusion petechia cancerous tumor of the bone marrow cancer of the blood or bone marrow characterized by the abnormal increase in white blood cells increase in the number of white blood cells deficiency in white blood cells surgical removal of a lymph gland (node) inflammation of a lymph gland (node) any disease of a lymph gland (node); used to refer to noticeably swollen lymph nodes, especially in the neck dilation of a lymph vessel, normally noticed by swelling in the extremities procedure to study the lymph vessels inflammation of the lymph vessels swelling caused by abnormal accumulation of lymph lymph cell tumor originating in lymphocytes abnormal deficiency in lymph condition characterized by large red blood cells condition characterized by small red blood cells disease characterized by poor production of blood cells by the bone marrow formation of bone marrow surgical fixation of the spleen and a kidney deficiency in neutrophil normal-sized red blood cell deficiency in the number of red blood cells inflammation of bone and bone marrow deficiency in all cellular components of the blood circulation of blood through tissue small bruise phagocytosis process in which phagocytes (a type of white blood cell) destroy (or eat) foreign microorganisms or cell debris phlebarteriectasia phlebology phlebotomist phlebotomy plasmapheresis plateletpheresis dilation of blood vessels poikilocytosis polycythemia reperfusion injury reticulocyte septicemia spherocyte spherocytosis sphygmomanometer splenalgia splenectomy splenectopy splenitis splenodynia splenolysis splenomalacia splenomegaly splenopathy splenoptosis splenorrhexis thrombocyte thrombocytopenia thrombocytosis thromboembolism condition characterized by red blood cells in a variety of shapes thrombogenic capable of producing a blood clot study of veins specialist in drawing blood incision into a vein (another name for drawing blood) apheresis to remove plasma apheresis to remove platelets (for the purpose of donating them to patients in need of platelets) excess of red blood cells injury to tissue that occurs after blood flow is restored immature red blood cell presence of disease-causing microorganisms in the blood red blood cell that assumes a spherical shape condition in which red blood cells assume a spherical shape fancy name for the device used to measure blood pressure pain in the spleen surgical removal of the spleen displacement of the spleen, sometimes called floating spleen inflammation of the spleen pain in the spleen breakdown (destruction) of spleen tissue softening of the spleen enlargement of the spleen any disease of the spleen downward displacement (drooping) of the spleen rupture of the spleen cell that helps blood clot (also known as a platelet) deficiency in the number of platelets (clot cells) increase in the number of platelets (clot cells) blockage of a vessel (embolism) caused by a clot that has broken off from where it formed thrombolytic thrombophlebitis thrombosis thrombus thymectomy thymic hyperplasia thymoma thymopathy tonsillectomy tonsillitis transfusion uremia drug that breaks down blood clots inflammation of a vein caused by a clot formation of a blood clot blood clot surgical removal of the thymus overdevelopment of the thymus tumor of the thymus disease of the thymus surgical removal of a tonsil inflammation of a tonsil infusion into a patient of blood from another source presence of urine in the blood
