The etymology of poik- is from the Greek poikilos, meaning "variation." Its primary use is in poikilocytosis, a presence in the blood of abnormal variation in the shape of the usually disc-shaped erythrocytes, or red blood cells. The term is only used when a more specific term, e.g., sickle cell, does not apply.
