Endothelial cells in blood smears.
Smears of blood obtained by venipuncture sometimes contain odd looking cells which occur singly and in sheets. Their presence may suggest a possible diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis, leukemia, or even malignant disease. Actually, they are endothelial cells from the lining of blood vessels. Use of a barbed needle for venipuncture is the cause of such artifacts.
