A 56-years-old woman was admitted to the emergency department because of fatigue since 6 weeks. Laboratory investigation revealed pancytopenia with teardrop cells and hypersegmentation. Teardrop cells are a characteristic finding in myelofibrosis, but in this case they were caused by severe vitamin B12 deficiency.
