title: Myeloproliferative disorders--neurological complications.
abstract: Primary myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) are often associated with hemostasis abnormalities, which may cause many thrombotic or hemorrhagic complications during the course of the disease. Clinical consequences following abnormal hemostatic conditions include various neurological manifestations. It is extremely difficult to predict and evaluate the risk and chance, that MPD patients will develop neurological symptoms. The up-to-date background of pathological thrombocytosis, as well as the neurological aspects of abnormal hemostasis during the course of myeloproliferative disorders have been reviewed in this study.
