Dear Dr. Ehl,
Yes, the boy has hepatosplenomegaly (ultrasonography report).
I will talk with the parents and request another bone marrow analysis. I think JMML is a possibility.What else should I request? Karyotype in bone marrow cells or Hb electrophoresis may help?
Thank you very much,
Juan Carlos
