Abstract
Small gray-blue intracytoplasmic inclusions were noted in the peripheral monocytes and neutrophils from a patient with renal failure. Ultrastructural analysis revealed confronting cisternae within the cytoplasm. The authors submit a case report to introduce a previously undescribed morphologic feature of leukocytes that may be mistaken at the light microscopic level for Döhle bodies or other inclusions.
