    Abstract:
    Fifty eight small and elder children were operated upon for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (39), hemolytic affections (17), and hemopoietic hypoplasia (2). At the height of a hemorrhagic crisis surgery was performed in 13 patients. Among 17 children with hematolytic processes in 2 cases autoimmune Fischer-Evans syndrome was observed. An intensive transfusion therapy and aministration of corticosteroids contributed to diminishing of the operative risk. No lethal issues were noted. Late results of splenectomies are described.
