Zusammenfassung
Polycythemia or erythrocytosis refers to an increase in hemoglobin and hematocrit concentration in peripheral blood. The erythopoietin, produced in 95% of renal cells, is in charge of erythropoiesis regulation due to hypoxia and is elevated in secondary erythrocytosis. The most important primary erythrocytosis is polycythemia vera, a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm that produces erythrocytosis independently of erythropoietin due to a mutation in erythroid progenitor cells. A diagnosis is established based on an increase in hemoglobin above 16.5 g/dl in men and 16 g/dl in women. An etiological diagnosis is fundamental for an appropriate management of the patient.
