Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) is an uncommon cause of thrombocytopenia in children. Mutations in the thrombopoietin (Tpo) receptor gene C-mpl were found to be the likely cause of thrombocytopenia and complete marrow failure. Two types are identified: CAMT with or without congenital anomalies. We report a case of the latter type for its extreme rarity. |
