What are the Health Implications of Thrombocytosis?
Thrombocytosis can lead to significant health issues if not addressed. Elevated platelet counts increase the risk of thrombosis, which can result in complications such as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. In the context of toxicology, understanding the source of thrombocytosis is vital to prevent ongoing exposure and mitigate these risks. Chronic thrombocytosis can also lead to cardiovascular complications, necessitating proactive management strategies.
