Abstract
Erythrophagocytosis refers to the removal of old and damaged red blood cells by leukocytes and macrophages. Observation of erythrophagocytosis in peripheral blood smear is a rare phenomenon that is mostly observed in paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria and sporadically in some other pathological conditions. Here, we report a case of erythrophagocytosis by monocyte in peripheral blood of a patient with urinary tract infection.
