Leukocytosis is a raised white blood cell count (the leukocyte count) above the normal range. This increase in leukocytes (primarily neutrophils) is usually accompanied by a "left shift" in the ratio of immature to mature neutrophils. The increase in immature leukocytes increases due to proliferation and release of granulocyte and monocyte precursors in the bone marrow which is stimulated by several products of inflammation including C3a and G-CSF.

Although it may indicate illness, leukocytosis is considered a laboratory finding instead of a separate disease. This classification is similar to that of fever, which is also a test result instead of a disease.

disagree  Miriam300: leukocyte count is not the same as leukocytosis- Leukocytosis is a condition characterized by an elevated number of white cells in the blood.

disagree  Polangmar: "Leukocytosis doubling" jest równie niepoprawne, jak "podwojenie się leukocytozy". Jeśli z "time", to powinno być "leukocyte doubling time" (65 wystąpień: http://je.pl/waea ).
