Pelger–Huët anomaly (pronunciation: [pel′gər hyo̅o̅′ət]) is a blood laminopathy associated with the lamin B receptor.It is characterized by a white blood cell type known as a neutrophil whose nucleus is hyposegmented. It is a genetic disorder with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Heterozygotes are clinically normal although their neutrophils may be mistaken for immature cells which may cause mistreatment in a clinical setting.
