considerations regarding the original in spanish:

the correct way to read in full would be "anchura (de la) distribución eritrocitaria", "ancho" here taking the place of anchura, but still meaning "width" in english. so that it could mean "broad" it would have to be written like this: distribución eritrocitaria ancha.


Hence Reb blood cell distribution width

Maybe it is handwritten, or maybe a typo - but are you sure "ancho" ends in an "-o"? It seems it should end in an "-a" in order to agree with "distribución."

Mike :)

Hi Álvaro - yes and no. Google hits are indeed "erythrocyte distribution" although I like "count" also; "ancho" is added from Oxford since it made sense to me. - Mike :)
