Thrombocytosis is defined as a platelet count greater than 400 Ã 109/L. In routine clinical practice, thrombocytosis is much more likely to be reactive (> 80% of cases) than primary. Reactive thrombocytosis is usually associated with infections, inflammation, trauma, hemolysis, metastatic cancer, the postsplenectomy state, or iron deficiency anemia.
Here, we want to test the effect of iron replacement on platelet count and activity in IBD-associated thrombocytosis. Methods: We performed a randomized, single-blinded placebo-controlled trial testing the effect of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in patients with IBD with. secondarythrombocytosis (platelets. 450 G/L).
