The causes of high platelet count or thrombocytosis can be classified as follows:

What Does a High Mean Platelet Volume Indicate? According to the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, a high platelet count can indicate a number of different conditions, including cancer, anemia or a reaction to medications.
platelets normalise with time. platelets and CRP remain elevated (ferritin may be raised) if underlying reactive condition present (see list above) If platelets remain more than 500 x 10 9 /L but CRP and ferritin are normal, it is likely to be essential thrombocythaemia and request haematology assessment.
Thrombocythemia refers to a high platelet count that is not caused by another health condition. This condition is sometimes called primary or essential thrombocythemia. Thrombocytosis refers to a high platelet count caused by another disease or condition.
ICD-10 code D69. 6 for Thrombocytopenia, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism .
ICD-10 code D47. 3 for Essential (hemorrhagic) thrombocythemia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Neoplasms .
ICD-10 code R79. 9 for Abnormal finding of blood chemistry, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
A high platelet count can occur when something causes the bone marrow to make too many platelets. When the reason is unknown, it is called primary or essential thrombocytosis. When excess platelets are due to an infection or other condition, it is called secondary thrombocytosis.
An increased number of thrombocytes (platelets) in the blood, without a known cause. Clinical syndrome characterized by repeated spontaneous hemorrhages and a remarkable increase in the number of circulating platelets.
Thrombocythemia is a disease in which your bone marrow makes too many platelets. Platelets are blood cell fragments that help with blood clotting. Having too many platelets makes it hard for your blood to clot normally. This can cause too much clotting, or not enough clotting.
Thrombocythemia is when the cause of a high platelet count isn't known. The condition sometimes is called primary or essential thrombocythemia. Thrombocytosis or thrombocythemia by themselves are not reportable.
[4] According to the World Health Organization, essential thrombocytosis is a disease that occurs when the platelet count is more than 450000 with the presence of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), Calreticulin (CALR) or myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene (MPL) mutation, lacking clonal or reactive causes.
Abnormal finding of blood chemistry, unspecified R79. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R79. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.

A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
A chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm that involves primarily the megakaryocytic lineage. It is characterized by sustained thrombocytosis in the blood, increased numbers of large, mature megakaryocytes in the bone marrow, and episodes of thrombosis and/or hemorrhage. The cause is unknown.
R79.89 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry. The code R79.89 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Blood cells constantly die and your body makes new ones. Red blood cells live about 120 days, and platelets live about 6 days.
Blood tests such as blood count tests help doctors check for certain diseases and conditions. They also help check the function of your organs and show how well treatments are working. Problems with your blood may include bleeding disorders, excessive clotting and platelet disorders.
Thrombocytosis (or thrombocythemia) is the presence of high platelet counts in the blood, and can be either primary (also termed essential and caused by a myeloproliferative disease) or reactive (also termed secondary). Although often symptomless (particularly when it is a secondary reaction), it can predispose to thrombosis in some patients.
