The Classic Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
Optimizing Laboratory Testing for Hematologic Disorders Series
Microscopic Examination: Biopsy
October 2011
We looked back at 267 Mayo Clinic patients in whom both peripheral blood and bone marrow studies for JAK2 V617F were done. As you can see, 98.5% of those patients had concordant results between peripheral blood and bone marrow with approximately one-half being positive and one-half being negative. Four out of the 267 showed discrepant results: 2 with a positive bone marrow and negative peripheral blood, and 2 the converse, having a positive peripheral blood and negative bone marrow.
