Laboratory Findings
Normal red blood cells are round, flattened disks that are thinner in the middle than at the edges, whereas a poikilocyte may be a distortion of that normal shape, or an entirely different shape. Generally, poikilocytosis can refer to an increase in abnormal red blood cells of any shape where they make up 10% or more of the total population.
