Leukocytes in a complete blood count (WBC, Leuk)

The absolute number of leukocytes reflects the protective function of the body and the state of immunity. Their norm for a healthy person is 4-9*10⁹/l. An increase in these formed elements - leukocytosis - can be physiological and pathological. Leukopenia - a decrease in the number - is often a sign of pathology. In the K+31 clinic, the best diagnostic methods, an individual treatment plan and the most advanced equipment are available to our patients.

Physiological and pathological leukocytosis

Physiological leukocytosis is observed:

  • After eating or intense physical activity
  • Before menstruation
  • In the third trimester of pregnancy
  • In persons with harmful occupational factors

Pathological growth of leukocytes is caused by:

  • Most infections (usually bacterial or fungal, less often viral)
  • Inflammatory process
  • Allergic reactions
  • Malignant tumors of the red bone marrow and lymphoid tissue (leukemia, lymphomas)
  • Introduction of parasites
  • Injuries (physical, thermal, electrical)
  • Myocardial infarction
Physiological and pathological leukocytosis
Leukopenia is a consequence of:
  • Exhaustion of the body due to starvation, serious illness
  • Severe purulent-septic conditions
  • Viral pathology
  • Autoimmune processes
  • Immunodeficiency
  • Bone marrow damage due to the toxic effects of certain drugs, poisonous substances or diseases
  • Radiation sickness
  • Chemotherapy, radiation and shock antibiotic therapy
  • Deficiency of vitamins, minerals, protein
  • Lack of thyroid hormones and glucocorticoids
  • Some forms of anemia (for example, aplastic) and leukemia (leukopenic and aleukemic)
Leukocyte formula

For the purpose of differential diagnosis, the leukocyte formula is also determined – the relative number of different Leuk representatives:

  • Basophils
  • Eosinophils
  • Band neutrophils
  • Segmented neutrophils
  • Lymphocytes
  • Monocytes

Determination of WBC and their formula is an integral part of a general blood test, examined both for preventive purposes and for the diagnosis of many diseases.

Обратилась к Юлии Николаевне по поводу увеличенных шейных лимфоузлов, переживая, что это может быть онкопроцесс. Однако Юлия Николаевна развеяла все мои страхи и сомнения. Ее компетентность безупречна, она увлечена наукой и является перфекционистом до мозга костей. Я выбрала этого врача, потому что уверена, что прием у неё — это самый быстрый и правильный путь к решению проблемы со здоровьем в области её научных интересов, таких как онкология и гематология.

У нашей бабушки диагностировали заболевание крови, и несмотря на длительное лечение, результата не было. Мы обратились к Дубининой Юлии, потому что нужно было что-то менять. Она провела повторное полное обследование, и оказалось, что изначально был неправильно поставлен диагноз, поэтому прежнее лечение не давало эффекта. К счастью, мы обратились к настоящему профессионалу, и очень жаль, что не сделали этого раньше. Сколько времени и сил могли бы сэкономить! Заболевание оказалось не смертельным и вполне поддается лечению.

Дубинина — молодая, но невероятно талантливая врач с глубокими познаниями в своей области. Я пишу об этом, потому что она действительно помогла мне. Когда я впервые увидела её, была немного растеряна, ведь врач была совсем молодой, но в процессе общения я поняла, что передо мной настоящий профессионал, который искренне заботится о своих пациентах. Она не утратила человечность и внимание, что было очень приятно. В профессиональном плане все также на высшем уровне — она дала мне назначения на обследования и рекомендации по лечению. Сейчас все в порядке, и схема лечения оказалась эффективной. Большое спасибо!

Обратилась по направлению от флеболога и очень рада, что попала к Юлии Николаевне. Врач внимательно выслушала мою непростую историю болезни, назначила необходимые исследования, все подробно пояснила и терпеливо ответила на все вопросы. Она вселила надежду, что всё будет хорошо! Юлия Николаевна — компетентный специалист, очень внимательный к мелочам и в целом к пациенту.

A female doctor sent me to Yulia Nikolaevna Dubinina. The history of my problems has been going on for several years (bruises on the body, constant fatigue, dizziness, pressure surges) and before visiting the clinic I could not be diagnosed. Professional approach, the doctor justifies his category. The treatment conditions are ideal, the approach is in the system.
