Macrocytosis is a condition where red blood cells are larger than normal. [1] These enlarged cells, also known as macrocytes, are defined by a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) that exceeds the upper reference range established by the laboratory and hematology analyzer (usually >110 fL). [2]
A macrocytic class of anemia is an anemia (defined as blood with an insufficient concentration of hemoglobin) in which the red blood cells (erythrocytes) are larger than their normal volume. The normal erythrocyte volume in humans is about 80 to 100 femtoliters (fL= 10 −15 L).

14 Μαρ 2023 · Macrocytosis is a description of enlarged red blood cells, not an official diagnosis. Your red blood cells are larger than normal if the MCV result on a CBC is greater than 100 fL. Sometimes, healthcare providers can determine likely causes based on how severe your macrocytosis is.
14 Νοε 2022 · When evaluating the erythrocyte size, it can be described as macrocytic (large), microcytic (small), or normocytic. Anisocytosis means a variation in size amongst the red blood cells on a single slide.
31 Ιουλ 2021 · Macrocytic RBCs are red cells which are larger than the nucleus of a normal lymphocyte. There are many causes, including B12 deficiency, pregnancy etc.
