Abstract:
The investigation of a girl aged 8 with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia showed an abnormality of primary hemostasis. The bleeding time was at the upper end of normal and platelet adhesiveness was decreased to a variable extent. Platelet life span was shortened, presumably due to the telangiectatic lesions typical of this disease. Platelet aggregation and ADP-content were normal as was the plasma coagulation system.
