Hereditary thrombocytopathic thrombocytopenia is reported in a family (mother and son) and is transmitted with dominant character of moderate to severe intensity (platelets fluctuated from less than 5,000 per mm-3 to 20,000 with sporadic higher rises), normal survivorhship, larger than normal diameter and abnormal platelet 3 factor. Comments are made on its resemblance to idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and stress is placed on the importance of its identification through the decision of splenectomy with negative results in these patients.
