Abstract
Two children with hepatoblastoma, marked thrombocytosis, and extremely elevated alpha fetoproteins are reported. It is not clear from review of the literature whether hepatoblastomas or hepatocarcinomas are associated with thrombocytosis. Elevated thrombopoietin levels were found in liver tumor extract from one patient.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
