Automatic differential blood counting in plasma cell leukemia.
The authors report a case of primary plasma cell leukemia and two cases of multiple myeloma with a large number of circulating plasma cells. The display of Technicon H-1 shows a very high "cloud" in the area of large unstained cells. A massive invasion of the basophil area was not found. Differences between these results and those found in different lymphoid leukemias are discussed.
