Explanation:
股骨头颈骨髓涂片18例查见脓球,

Bone marrow smear of femoral head and neck showed pus cells in 18 patients.

I guess it's a mixed of :
脓液 : pus
球菌 : coque, coccus (as in staphylococcus)

Sorry, here, 球 means 颗粒球 (granulocytes) \"Pus cells\" are altered granulocytes.

  -> Thanks Luzou.

neutral  Jianming Sun: PUL CELL是指脓细胞,所谓脓细胞是指变性或死亡的白细胞.

  -> 对, 但脓细胞可以写脓球 (as in French we call that "globule de pus" instead of "cellule de pus"). 颗粒球就是"多核白细胞" (polynuclear leucocyte)。Pus cell means "modified granulocytes", a part of pus (or, if you prefer modified polynuclear leucocytes).
