Question:

Reportability--Heme & Lymphoid Neoplasms: Is reactive thrombocytosis reportable? See Discussion.

Discussion:

The doctor's impression: "Thrombocytosis, mild without other obvious hematologic difficulty. I would be most suspicious for early iron deficiency related to her prior menometrorrhagia. Would limit initial evaluation to iron studies, review of peripheral smear, and hepatic profile."

Answer:

For cases diagnosed 2010 and forward, access the Hematopoietic Database at http://seer.cancer.gov/seertools/hemelymph.

Reactive thrombocytosis is not reportable and is not an alternative name for essential thrombocythemia [9962/3].

Only the following are listed as alternate names for essential thrombocythemia in the Heme DB:

Essential hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Essential thrombocytosis

Hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic hemorrhagic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic thrombocythemia

Idiopathic thrombocytosis

Primary thrombocythemia

Primary thrombocytosis

Thrombocythemia vera
