Abstract:
Neutropenia remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to primary care physicians. The clinical significance of neutropenia must always be interpreted within the context of the individual patient's presentation. Physicians who have an appreciation of the pathophysiologic mechanisms that produce neutropenia and familiarity with the commonly encountered clinical disorders can successfully evaluate and treat these conditions.
