Fechtner syndrome is a variant of Alport syndrome with leukocyte inclusions and macrothrombocytopenia.

Döhle bodies are light blue-gray, oval, basophilic, leukocyte inclusions located in the peripheral cytoplasm of neutrophils.

He is also known for the discovery of small (1-3 in diameter) light blue-gray basophilic leukocyte inclusions in the periphery of neutrophils, structures that are known today as "Döhle bodies".

Interestingly, MYH9 is also found to be responsible for several related disorders with macrothrombocytopenia and leukocyte inclusions, including Sebastian, Fechtner, and Epstein syndromes, which feature deafness, nephritis, and/or cataract.

May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA), also known as Dohle leukocyte inclusions with giant platelets and macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions, is a rare genetic disorder of the blood platelets that causes them to be abnormally large.
