?:definition
  • A familial form of essential thrombocythaemia, a myeloproliferative disorder characterised by a sustained elevation of platelet number with a tendency for thrombosis and haemorrhage. Patients commonly manifest microcirculatory disturbances or vaso-motor events. The disease is less frequently associated with an increased risk of haemorrhage, mild splenomegaly, and progression towards myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia or transformation to leukaemia. The genetic cause of the inherited predisposition is not known. Transmission appears to be autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance.
