[Polycythemia vera, complicated by myocardial infarction]
In an autopsied female primary polycythemia was definitely diagnosed only after histological examination. A classical form of Vaquez-Osler disease was characterized by pronounced normo-, granulo- and megakaryocyte hyperplasia of the bone marrow, spleen and liver myelosis with an admixture of atypical megakaryocytes and splenomegaly. There was a complication in the form of two coronary arteries thrombosis. Lethal outcome resulted from myocardial infarction.
