ABSTRACT
Polycythemia vera (PV) is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by clonal proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells leading to an accumulation of erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets within the circulation. Thrombosis and hemorrhage are the most common serious complications of PV, and occur in 30-50% of patients. We report an unusual case of PV initially presenting with intraventricular hemorrhage, with concomitant ischemic heart disease.
