#hematology terms

• Aglobulia — A marked decrease or total absence of red blood cells (erythrocytes) in the blood, representing a severe and critical form of structural anemia. This hematological condition severely disrupts the blood's capacity to transport oxygen to biological tissues and is often caused by a severe dysfunction of the hematopoietic bone marrow.
• Aplasia — A congenital or acquired anomaly consisting of the cessation of the development of an organ or tissue, even though its embryonic outline existed normally. This structural disorder translates clinically into the total or partial absence of functional cellular elements, a major example being medullary aplasia, which leads to the cessation of blood cell production.
