Essential Thrombocythemia. Essential thrombocythemia (ET) is a type of blood cancer known as a myeloproliferative neoplasm. It involves the abnormal development and function of bone marrow cells that produce blood cells, and leads to the overproduction of blood cells known as platelets.
Thrombocytosis is typically discovered as an incidental laboratory abnormality when the complete blood count is obtained for some unrelated reason. When found, however, it creates an important diagnostic challenge. Thrombocytosis generally either is a reactive process (secondary thrombocytosis) or is caused by a clonal bone marrow (myeloproliferative) disorder; the latter category includes essential thrombocythemia.
