2. Giant platelet disorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_platelet_disorder

   Giant platelet disorders, also known as macrothrombocytopenia, are rare disorders featuring abnormally large platelets, thrombocytopenia and a tendency to bleeding. Giant platelets cannot stick adequately to injured blood vessel walls, resulting in abnormal bleeding when injured.

3. Bernard–Soulier syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard–Soulier_syndrome

   In terms of diagnosis Bernard–Soulier syndrome is characterized by prolonged bleeding time, thrombocytopenia, increased megakaryocytes, and enlarged platelets, Bernard–Soulier syndrome is associated with quantitative or qualitative defects of the platelet glycoprotein complex GPIb/V/IX. The degree of thrombocytopenia may be estimated ...

4. May–Hegglin anomaly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May–Hegglin_anomaly

   It is not yet known why inclusion bodies are not present in platelets, monocytes, and lymphocytes, or how giant platelets are formed. MYH9 is also found to be responsible for several related disorders with macrothrombocytopenia and leukocyte inclusions, including Sebastian, Fechtner, and Epstein syndromes, which feature deafness, nephritis, and ...

5. Glanzmann's thrombasthenia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glanzmann's_thrombasthenia

   Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is associated with abnormal integrin α IIb β 3, formerly known as glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GpIIb/IIIa), [7] which is an integrin aggregation receptor on platelets. This receptor is activated when the platelet is stimulated by ADP, epinephrine, collagen, or thrombin.

6. Essential thrombocythemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_thrombocythemia

   Platelets derived from the abnormal megakaryocytes are activated, which, along with the elevated platelet count, contributes to the likelihood of forming blood clots. [8] The increased possibility of bleeding when the platelet count is over 1 million is due to von Willebrand factor (vWF) sequestration by the increased mass of platelets, leaving ...

   Anisocytosis is a medical term meaning that a patient's red blood cells are of unequal size. This is commonly found in anemia and other blood conditions. False diagnostic flagging may be triggered on a complete blood count by an elevated WBC count, agglutinated RBCs, RBC fragments, giant platelets or platelet clumps due to anisocytosis.
