Figure 1. These syndromes include clonal diseases (paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, myelodysplasia, and large granular lymphocytosis); and single hematopoietic lineage deficiency diseases (agranuloyctosis, pure red-cell aplasia, and amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia); note especially the areas of overlap between aplastic anemia and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and myelodysplasia.
