Full Chapter

The first edition of Williams Hematology (né Hematology) was published in 1972. This, our 10th edition,
represents our continued efforts over one-half century to provide the most current concepts of the genetic

basis, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hematologic diseases.

The rate of growth in our understanding of diseases of blood cells and coagulation pathways has justified,

indeed mandated, the effort of the editors to publish periodic major revisions in this comprehensive

textbook of hematology. The sequencing of patient genomes and advances in knowledge in epigenetics,

proteomics, and metabolomics, as applied to hematologic disorders, have accelerated the understanding
of the pathogenesis of the diseases of our interest and provided new pathways to treatment. Advances in

our dissection of molecular and cellular biology and immunology have translated into improved

diagnostic and therapeutic methods. Customizing immunotherapy to attack tumor cell antigens and
identifying specific molecular targets for therapy in several hematologic disorders have, as anticipated,

become reality. Gene therapy is being implemented to cure selected, monogenic, inherited hematologic

diseases, such as hemophilia A and B. Sickle cell anemia is a disease about which we have known more

than almost any other genetic disorder, yet we have been unable to modulate, significantly, its horrific
impact on patients. Finally, we may be edging toward a dramatic improvement in therapy by preventing

the suppression of F hemoglobin synthesis a er birth, minimizing the fraction of hemoglobin S in

postnatal blood. Other promising approaches to gene therapy are also being studied in sickle cell anemia

and thalassemia. CRISPR-Cas9 methodology has been a singular application in several of these gene-
editing approaches. Hematology continues to be the poster child for the rational design of therapeutics

applicable to other fields of medicine.

This edition of Williams Hematology endeavors to facilitate access to information, both within the book
and its associated links. Each chapter has been revised or rewritten to provide current information. To

reflect the increased application of immunotherapy, chapters on this important topic have been added,

including Chapter 22, "Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors"; Chapter 23, "Immune Cell Therapy: Chimeric

Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy"; and Chapter 24, "Immune Cell Therapy: Dendritic Cell and Natural Killer

Cell Therapy," along with the revised and updated Chapter 25, "Vaccine Therapy." A new Chapter 12,

"Application of Big Data and Deep Learning in Hematology" has been introduced.

At the center of diagnostic hematology is blood and marrow cell morphology. Thus, we have continued the

incorporation of informative color images representing the relevant diseases in each chapter, allowing

easy access to illustrations of cell morphology important to diagnosis.

The 10th edition of Williams Hematology is also available online as part of the excellent

www.accessmedicine.com website. With direct links to a comprehensive drug therapy database and to

other important medical texts, including Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine and Goodman &
Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, Williams Hematology Online is part of a
comprehensive resource covering all disciplines within medical education and practice. The online edition

of Williams Hematology also includes PubMed links to journal articles cited in the references. New in this

online edition is the presentation of clinical cases for readers to explore, each linked to the relevant

disease-oriented chapter.

The companion handbook, Williams Manual of Hematology, will be revised to reflect the diagnostic and

therapeutic advances entered into the 10th edition of Williams Hematology. The Manual features the most

salient clinical content from the parent text and is useful in time-restricted clinical situations. The Manual

will be available for the iPhone and other mobile formats. It has been particularly useful for physicians

studying for the American Board of Internal Medicine Certification in Hematology and comparable other

examinations in other jurisdictions.

The production of this book required the timely cooperation of 233 contributors for the writing or revising

of 140 chapters. We are grateful for their insight and work in providing this comprehensive and up-to-date

text. Despite the growth of both basic and clinical knowledge and the passion that each of our contributors
brings to the topic of their chapter, we have been able to maintain the text in a single volume through

attention to chapter length.

The editorial board has lost the experience and intellect of Oliver W. Press, who died from a malignant
brain tumor in 2017 and who had joined the board as the expert in lymphopoiesis and lymphoma for the

9th edition. His contributions to the field and to his institution, The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, were

singular.

The readers of the 10th edition of Williams Hematology will note the expanding international participation

in the text with the addition of Professor David Linch, University College, London, who is the editor for the
biology and diseases of lymphocytes and the lymphoma sections. Thus, the 10th edition has two of its six

editors from the United Kingdom and chapter authors from Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Israel,
Italy, Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom in addition to the United

States. The preparation of this edition of Williams Hematology required our authors throughout Europe,
other international sites, and the United States to remain dedicated to their task despite the impact of the

new strain of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection and its dissemination as coronavirus disease, first
identified in late 2019 (COVID-19) and therea er became a pandemic, a contagion of historic

consequences. The editors are grateful for their dedication despite the hardships endured by many of our
contributors.
The editors have had expert administrative assistance in the management of the manuscripts for which

they were primarily responsible. We thank Susan Daley in Rochester, New York; Teresa MacDonald in
London, United Kingdom; and Shelly Saxton in Salt Lake City, Utah, for their very helpful participation in

the production of the book. Special acknowledgment goes to Marie Brito in Stony Brook, New York, who
was responsible for coordinating the management of 140 chapters, including many new figures, tables,

and clinical cases, and managing other administrative matters, a challenging task that Ms. Brito performed
with skill and good humor. The editors also acknowledge the interest and support of our colleagues at
McGraw Hill, including James F. Shanahan, Vice President and Group Publisher; Karen G. Edmonson,

Senior Content Acquisitions Editor; Kim Davis, Developmental Director; Leah Carton, Editorial Coordinator;
and Revathi Viswanathan, Client Services Manager for Williams Hematology.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of


Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.
It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and
donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the


assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a
secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help,
see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project


Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification
number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,


Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website
and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to


the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can
be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the
widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small
donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax
exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating


charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and
keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in
locations where we have not received written confirmation of
compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of
compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where


we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no
prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in
such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make


any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of
other ways including checks, online payments and credit card
donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project


Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed


editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,


including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how
to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
