Refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (RARS). Bone marrow aspirate smear (Wright-Giemsa stain). The two panels in this slide illustrate that the megakaryocytes and the granulocytes show normal morphology. The erythroid precursors in this slide do show some mild nuclear/cytoplasmic dyssynchrony (arrow).
