Abstract
Essential thrombocytosis also referred to as essential thrombocythemia, idiopathic thrombocytosis, primary thrombocytosis and hemorrhagic thrombocythemia is an uncommon myeloproliferative disorder of unknown cause in which marked proliferation of the megakaryocytes in the bone marrow leads to elevation of the platelet count. We report here a case of type 2 diabetic patient with essential thrombocytosis.
