  • Title: How would I manage a case of essential thrombocythaemia presenting with an ischaemic toe.
    Author: McLornan D, McMullin M.
    Journal: Hematol Oncol; 2008 Mar; 26(1):3-7. PubMed ID: 17968848.
    Abstract:
    Essential thrombocythaemia (ET) is an acquired myeloproliferative disorder. The phenotypic and biological heterogeneity of ET can make management of individual cases problematic, especially in the era of changing ideas on the molecular pathogenesis of this disease process. This case discussion will explore the evidence base and rationale that guides treatment of a 46-year-old individual with ET presenting with an ischaemic episode.
