Inherited Thrombocytopenias

Inherited Thrombocytopenias

• Overview

  The frequency of thrombocytopenia diagnostic requests has continued to increase with the advent of routine automated platelet determinations and the introduction of new medications. Versiti Diagnostic Labs possesses leading technology, and the medical and scientific experience to provide precision diagnosis and management of inherited thrombocytopenias.

  Although inherited thrombocytopenias represent a small percentage of thrombocytopenias, it is not uncommon to see that inherited thrombocytopenia have been misdiagnosed as autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and as a result, patients may have received inappropriate therapies. Recent developments in identifying molecular defects have emerged to distinguish congenital cases from immune thrombocytopenia. Versiti is proud to continue expanding the frontiers of laboratory medicine to ensure accurate diagnosis of this complex disease state.
