Overview

Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of essential thrombocytosis.

Perioperative management should have a multidisciplinary approach involving hematology and the surgical team.

Some experts target preprocedure platelet counts <450 x 10^9/L in high-risk and <600 x 10^9/L in low-risk patients.[1] Achieving the low-risk target may require a short course of hydroxyurea. Evidence is lacking for perioperative aspirin/anticoagulation decisions specific to ET, so experts recommend following general perioperative guidelines for people without ET.

Evidence is lacking for perioperative aspirin/anticoagulation decisions specific to ET, so experts recommend following general perioperative guidelines for people without ET.

In a retrospective review of 66 patients undergoing 121 procedures,[3] there was no perioperative bleeding; 90-day postoperative risks were 1% arterial thrombosis, 1% venous thrombosis, 4% hemorrhage, and 2% death. Findings suggest continuing cytoreductive and aspirin therapy may be reasonable for most surgeries unless the procedure has high bleeding risk.
