Semiquantitative grading of reticulin fibrosis was performed using the MF grading system as described in the current WHO classification.8
ANC, absolute neutrophil count; CBC, complete blood count; ESR, erythrocyte sedimentation rate; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; MF marrow fibrosis; WBC, white blood cell.
