Abstract EN
Platelet clumping is a common laboratory phenomenon that complicates or precludes reporting of platelet count.
It is often, but not always, a phenomenon commonly caused by the anticoagulant EDTA.
Herein, we discuss a case of a 14-year-old girl who was found to have platelet clumping and discuss the work-up she underwent to investigate her pseudothrombocytopenia.
