Bleeding and thrombosis in the myeloproliferative disorders
AI Schafer
Bleeding and thrombosis are major causes of morbidity and mortality in
patients with myeloproliferative disorders. The significance of
uncontrolled polycythemia as a risk factor for thrombosis in these patients
has been established. However, the role of thrombocytosis in the
pathogenesis of hemostatic complications remains controversial.
Abnormalities of platelet function and prolongation of the bleeding time
occur in a highly variable number of cases. Specific platelet defects that
have been identified in the myeloproliferative defects include abnormal
platelet morphology, acquired storage pool disease, platelet membrane
abnormalities, and abnormal arachidonic acid metabolism. Causal
relationships between any of these specific abnormalities and either
bleeding or thrombosis have not been clearly established. The therapeutic
efficacy of myelosuppression to reduce the platelet count in patients with
thrombocytosis and the role of antiplatelet drugs in the myeloproliferative
disorders are controversial issues.
