<p>A family with a history of bleeding, variable thrombocytopenia, red cell macrocytosis and two cases of pre B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia was studied in a single visit. The family was assessed for bleeding history using a bleeding questionnaire. Additionally, complete blood counts were measured and whole blood was collected from five affected individuals and three unaffected individuals for DNA extraction and whole exome sequencing.</p> <p>The goal of this study is to determine the genetic cause of thrombocytopenia, red cell macrocytosis, and predisposition to leukemia in a family. It is hoped that the information obtained from this study will help researchers understand the genetic and molecular basis of platelet and red cell production, as well as leukemia predisposition.</p>
