Thrombocytes (T) are found individually and in small aggregates in well-prepared blood smears. Thrombocytes are small and typically oval to elongate and commonly displaying nuclear pleomorphism with round to oval to reniform nuclei. The cytoplasm of thrombocytes is usually clear with occasional, small cytoplasmic granules (Wright’s stain x100 objective).
