Bengal macrothrombocytopenia is not totally an innocuous condition

Blood Cells, Molecules, and Diseases, 2016
Inherited macrothrombocytopenia is a subgroup of thrombocytopenias, and is characterised by the presence of giant platelets and decreased platelet count with variable bleeding manifestations. Bengal macrothrombocytopenia is a newly described entity, previously called asymptomatic constitutional macrothrombocytopenia (ACMT), presented with variable ...

Splenomegaly, Macrothrombocytopenia and Stomatocytosis in Healthy Mediterranean Subjects (Splenomegaly in Mediterranean Macrothrombocytopenia)

Scandinavian Journal of Haematology, 1975
Spleen size, stomatocytosis, macrothrombocytopenia, haemoglobin level, white cell count, and abdominal pain episodes were assessed in a coded study of healthy Mediterranean immigrants to Australia. Spleen size was estimated from a length measurement, L, on a standardized plain abdominal radiograph and expressed both as spleen weight and as a spleen ...

Inherited Macrothrombocytopenias

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2014
Inherited macrothrombocytopenias are a clinically heterogeneous group of disorders, many of which cause moderate-to-severe bleeding tendencies in affected individuals, but which remain under-recognized and are frequently misdiagnosed as immune thrombocytopenia purpura. Diagnostic strategies to date have included a predominant phenotypic approach.

Platelet kinetics in autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia

Journal of Laboratory and Clinical Medicine, 1998
A family with autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia is described. Despite severe thrombocytopenia, only a moderate hemorrhagic tendency was observed. Kinetic studies revealed a normal platelet survival, normal megakaryocytic numbers, and normal bone marrow responsiveness.
