RESUMO
Spontaneous platelet aggregation was studied in 51 children and adolescents, comprising 30 nonsplenectomized thalassemic patients, 12 splenectomized thalassemic patients and 9 normal children. Spontaneous platelet aggregation was significantly increased in whole blood and platelet-rich plasma of splenectomized thalassemic patients but not in nonsplenectomized cases.
