Abstract

Substantial progress has been made in recent years in the understanding of platelets and their functions. This has permitted a more reasonable classification of congenital platelet diseases, primarily thanks to the standardization of haemostasis and platelet function tests. A comparison is made between the pictures best defined in 17 cases studied at the S. Matteo Polyclinic in recent years. This brought out certain contradictions and suggested that further study in greater depth is required.
