Transient EDTA‐dependent pseudothrombocytopenia and ulcerative colitis recurrence during chemotherapy: A case of misleading platelet count results attributable to a laboratory artifact [PDF]
Clinical Case Reports, 2023 Key Clinical Message EDTA‐dependent pseudothrombocytopenia as well as myelosuppression should be suspected when thrombocytopenia occurs in patients with autoimmune disease during chemotherapy.

COVID‐19‐associated pseudothrombocytopenia [PDF]
eJHaem, 2021 Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19), caused by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), can be associated with changes in platelet count [1, 2]. Thrombocytopenia has been reported in up to 40% of COVID-19 infections [3-5] and is an important marker for morbidity and mortality [1, 2, 5].

Pseudothrombocytopenia: a case of platelet satellitism and phagocytosis by neutrophils
Platelets, 2020 Thrombocytopenia is a clinically important condition that can lead to several problems when not correctly diagnosed. A decrease of platelet counts due to an in vitro phenomenon, Pseudothrombocytopenia, can be misunderstood and unnecessarily treated.
