Paris-Trousseau syndrome

Paris-Trousseau syndrome
Other namesParis-Trousseau thrombocytopenia[1]

Paris-Trousseau syndrome (PTS) is an inherited disorder characterized by mild hemorrhagic tendency associated with 11q chromosome deletion.[2][3] It manifests as a granular defect within an individual's platelets. It is characterized by thrombocytes with defects in α-granule components which affects the cell's surface area and, consequently, its ability to spread when necessary.[citation needed]

FLI1 has been suggested as a candidate.[4]
