27 year old Hispanic female G2P3 at 16 weeks gestation presented with complaint of diffuse abdominal pain. A routine CBC was reported to show a platelet count of 47k/ul. The anticoagulant routinely used to collect blood for CBC determination is sodium EDTA. A low power view of her peripheral smear shows marked platelet clumping around the neutrophils. This was the first indication that her she had a pseudothrombocytopenia.
