Ceftriaxone for the treatment of febrile episodes in nonneutropenic patients with hematooncological disease or HIV infection: comparison of outpatient and inpatient care

A practical approach to neutrophil disorders

This review discusses disorders of altered neutrophil number and function and provide a basic framework for patient evaluation and management. The sections begin with neutropenia, neutrophilia and neutrophil dysfunction with a general screening approach to differentiate common, more benign syndromes from rare, often more serious disorders. Also included is a detailed discussion of some specific primary neutrophil syndromes at the end of each section. Focus is placed on specific disorders that are clinically common or particularly instructive.
