AB SUMMARYThe  three  major  pathophysiologic  causes  of  thrombocytosis  are  (1)  clonal,  including  essential  (or  primary)  thrombocythemia  and  other  myeloproliferative  neoplasms;  (2)  familial,  including  rare  cases  of  nonclonal  myeloproliferation  resulting  from  thrombopoietin  and  thrombopoietin  receptor  mutations;  and  (3)  reactive,  in  which  thrombocytosis  occurs  secondary  to  a  variety  of  acute  and  chronic  clinical  conditions.  This  chapter  deals  with  the  latter  causes  of  thrombocytosis.
