| macrocythemia | The occurrence of unusually large numbers of macrocytes in the circulating blood. Synonym: macrocytosis, megalocythemia, megalocytosis. Origin: macrocyte + G. Haima, blood Hyperchromatic macrocythemia, an inexact term frequently used for macrocytes that contain an unusually large amount of haemoglobin, but are actually normochromic; although the total mass of haemoglobin is greater than normal (owing to the large cells), the percentage of haemoglobin in the cells is not greater than normal.

Haima = blood (27 Sep 1997) |
| macrocytic anaemia | Any anaemia in which the average size of circulating erythrocytes is greater than normal, i.e., the mean corpuscular volume is 94 cu um or more (normal range, 82 to 92 cu um), including such syndromes as pernicious anaemia, sprue, coeliac disease, macrocytic anaemia of pregnancy, anaemia of diphyllobothriasis, and others.
