auses of High Platelets (Thrombocytosis) | Rapid Review

Thrombocytosis is a condition involving abnormally high levels of platelets (thrombocytes). Platelets are small cell fragments from a larger cell called megakaryocytes. Platelets are important in clotting as they are used to form platelet plugs. Thrombocytosis can occur due to many underlying conditions. Thrombocytosis can be separated into primary and secondary thrombocytosis. High platelet levels can cause a variety of vasomotor signs and symptoms, including headaches and chest pain. Diagnosis involves blood work and assessing for underlying causes, and treatment involves particular medications if it is deemed to be primary thrombocytosis.
