OBJECTIVE: Haemoglobin spherulosis (HS) is a rare lesion occurring post-vitreous haemorrhage that is absent from the cytopathology literature.
METHODS: We present the fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy cytological features of a case of HS occurring in a 73-year-old woman.
RESULTS: FNA smears of hemorrhagic vitreous fluid showed numerous variably sized smooth glassy spherules ranging from 3-20 μm. Occasional red cells and a rare lymphocyte were observed, but other cell types were absent. Immunohistochemical staining of a cell block showed diffuse positive staining of spherules with haemoglobin A.
CONCLUSIONS: HS is a rare lesion that occurs post-subretinal haemorrhage and may be encountered by pathologists examining ocular cytological specimens.
