(a) Bone marrow aspirate (Wright-Giemsa stain, 100x). High magnification of the bone marrow aspirate shows a marrow with erythroid hyperplasia, megaloblastic maturation, and a dysplastic erythroid cell (arrow). (b) Bone marrow aspirate (Wright-Giemsa stained, 100x). High magnification of the bone marrow aspirate shows a dysplastic megakaryocyte with separate lobes. (c) Bone marrow aspirate (Iron stain, 100x). The iron stained aspirate shows multiple ring sideroblasts (>15%) (arrows).
