The authors presented the morphometrical evaluation of the bone marrow MK in rats in the acute stage of experimental hemorrhagic shock. The experiments used a semiautomatic computer programme. The total number of MK per 1 mm2 of the bone marrow was analysed with regard to various morphological forms of MK, their surface area, shape disorders, nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio and cluster forms. A considerable shift was observed in the MK parameters examined, suggesting a significant effect of hemorrhagic shock upon megakaryocytopoiesis.
