A retrospective study of the aetiology of increased mean platelet volume in dogs presented to a small animal teaching hospital in Greece
In dogs with thrombocytopenia and increased mean platelet volume, inflammatory/infectious or neoplastic diseases should be considered. In non-thrombocytopenic dogs, increased mean platelet volume is primarily associated with inflammatory/infectious diseases, with neoplasia and diabetes mellitus being infrequent causes.
