Rouleaux

The term applied to the heaps into which red blood corpuscles (erythrocytes) collect as seen under the microscope.


In the domain of hematological abnormalities, there exists a phenomenon known as the aggregation of red blood cells. This occurrence occurs due to the presence of additional or abnormal proteins in the blood, which disrupt the regular spacing maintained by red cells. Consequently, the red blood cells tend to stack up, leading to altered flow dynamics and potential complications. Understanding the mechanisms behind this process aids in the comprehension and management of related blood disorders.
