PBS Key Features:1,2
Granulocytes show metachromatic and darkly staining inclusions (Alder-Reilly bodies) containing partially digested mucopolysaccharides that resemble toxic granulation but are permanent (non-transient). Anomaly is differentiated from toxicity by a lack of Dohle bodies, left shift, and neutrophilia. Abnormal granules may also be seen in lymphocytes and monocytes.
Cause:1,2
Incomplete degradation of mucopolysaccharides (Mucoplysaccharidosis disorder)
Inheritance Pattern:1-3
Autosomal recessive
Clinical Significance:1-5
Leukocyte function is not impaired. Associated syndromes include Tay‐Sachs disease, Hunter syndrome, Hurler syndrome, and Maroteaux-Lamy polydystrophic dwarfism which all result in different clinical symptoms.
