Abstract
Inherited platelet disorders (IPDs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by normal or reduced platelet counts, bleeding diatheses of varying severities, and the presence (syndromic) or absence (non-syndromic) of involvement of other organs. Due to the lack of highly specific platelet function tests and overlapping clinical and laboratory features, diagnosing the underlying cause of IPDs remains challenging. In recent years, genetic testing via next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to rapidly analyze multiple genes has gradually emerged as an important part of the laboratory investigation of patients with IPDs. A systemic clinical and laboratory testing approach and thorough phenotype and genotype correlation studies of both patients and their family members are crucial for accurate diagnoses of IPDs.
