| Gaucher cells | Large, finely and uniformly vacuolated cell's derived from the reticuloendothelial system, and found especially in the spleen, lymph nodes, liver, and bone marrow of patients with Gaucher's disease; Gaucher cell's contain kerasin (a cerebroside), which accumulates as a result of a genetically determined absence of the enzyme glucosylceramidase.

| gaucher disease | <radiology> Cerebroside lipidosis, autosomal recessive, abnormal accumulation of glucocerebroside, RE system: liver, spleen, lymph nodes, CNS neurons, skeletal disorders, avascular necrosis, Erlenmeyer flask deformity, resorption of trabeculae, lytic/sclerotic changes, hepatosplenomegaly Cf: Niemann-Pick disease (12 Dec 1998) |
| Gaucher disorder | <disease> A chronic congenital disease of lipid metabolism caused by a deficiency of the beta-glucocerebrosidase enzyme. The defect is most common in Ashkenazi Jews. Clinical features are hepatosplenomegaly (enlargement of liver and spleen) and in severe early onset forms of the disease, with neurological dysfunction. Inheritance: autosomal recessive.

| gaucher's disease, type 1 | A progressive genetic disease caused by a defect in an enzyme. The enzyme, called glucocerebrosidase, is needed to break down the chemical glucocerebroside. The enzyme defect in persons with Gaucher's disease (GD) leads to the accumulation of glucocerebroside in the spleen, liver, and lymph nodes. The most common early sign is enlargement of the spleen (located in the upper left abdomen). Other signs include low red blood cell counts (anaemia), a decrease in blood clotting cells (platelets), increased pigmentation of the skin, and a yellow fatty spot on the white of the eye (a pinguecula). Severe bone involvement can lead to pain and collapse of the bone of the hips, shoulders, and spine. The GD gene is on chromosome 1. The disease is a recessive trait. Both parents carry a GD gene and transmit it for their child with the disease. The parents' risk of a child with the disease is 1 in 4 with each pregnancy. This type of Gaucher's disease (noncerebral juvenile Gaucher's disease) is most common in Ashkenazi Jews (of European origin) and is the most common genetic disease among Jews in the United States. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pseudo-Gaucher cell | A plasma cell, microscopically resembling a Gaucher cell, found in the bone marrow in some cases of multiple myeloma. (05 Mar 2000) |

| massive splenomegaly | <radiology> Malaria, CML, myelofibrosis and myeloid metaplasia, Kala azar, schistosomiasis, storage diseases: Gaucher, Niemann-Pick, thalassaemia major (Cooley's anaemia), some spleen cysts (12 Dec 1998) |
| congestive splenomegaly | Enlargement of the spleen due to passive congestion; sometimes used as a synonym for Banti's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| haemolytic splenomegaly | Splenomegaly associated with congenital haemolytic jaundice. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hyperreactive malarious splenomegaly | A syndrome characterised by persistent splenomegaly, exceptionally high serum IgM and malaria antibody levels, and hepatic sinusoidal lymphocytosis; believed to be a disturbance in the T-lymphocyte control of the humoral response to recurrent malaria. Synonym: tropical splenomegaly syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| splenomegaly | <clinical sign> Enlargement of the spleen. Origin: Gr. Megas = large (18 Nov 1997) |
| Niemann's splenomegaly | Enlargement of spleen occurring in Niemann-Pick disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Egyptian splenomegaly | Term sometimes used as a synonym for schistosomiasis mansoni, although hepatomegaly and fibrosis are more consistently found than is an enlarged spleen. (05 Mar 2000) |
