[Medullary microcirculation in human primary and secondary myeloscloroses].

There are histological and experimental evidence for bone marrow microcirculation to play a role in histogenesis of myelosclerosis. Human sternal bone marrow microcirculation was studied after death using ink injection in two cases of primary myelofibrosis, two cases of secondary meylofibrosis (Hodgkin's disease) an one case of osteomyelosclerosis. Control material consisted of 30 previously studied normal human sternums. In all cases interadipocytic sinusoidal network has completely disappeared. Medullary vascularization is anarchic with a vascular and hypervascular areas. The significance of these modifications is discussed.
