However, leukocytosis of unusual degree may result from severe infection, intoxications, rapid blood loss or malignancy. This case is presented to illustrate that carcinoma of the suprarenal gland with widespread metastasis showing necrosis may result in a marked stimulation to the production of white blood cells.CASE REPORTA 59 year old white female was admitted to St. Luke's Hospital on March 3, 1949. Her present illness had begun approximately eight weeks before admission with sudden onset of ease of fatigue, weakness and anorexia. The patient was confined...Bibliography1.
