Introduction: Neutropenia is defined as an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1500 cells/microL and may be discovered incidentally in an asymptomatic, afebrile patient.

Objective: This narrative review provides an approach to the afebrile emergency department patient with incidental neutropenia.

Discussion: Neutropenia is an ANC < 1500 cells/microL, with mild neutropenia defined as an ANC ≥ 1000 to <1500 cells/microL, moderate ≥500 to <1000 cells/microL, severe <500 cells/microL, and agranulocytosis <200 cells/microL.
