Focal epicardial hemorrhages in hypothrombocytopenia. The anterior surface of the heart shows focal hemorrhages in a 56-year-old man with acute myelogenous leukemia. The epicardial hemorrhages seen here are typical of those observed in many patients with severe hypothrombocytopenia from any cause. This man's platelet count 2 days before death was 500 per mm3.
