X-linked Thrombocythemia is an inherited disorder characterized by a sustained elevation of platelet numbers, which affects the platelet/megakaryocyte lineage and may create a tendency for thrombosis and hemorrhage, but does not cause myeloproliferation. Affected patients may have an increased risk of thrombotic events and hemorrhage. It is usually discovered incidentally during routine blood tests. Treatment of FA disease is based on giving low dose aspirin at diagnosis.
