Abstract
Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia and Splenomegaly are two well known
pathologies that often can be managed medically. However there are
instances in which surgical management is indicated. We report the
proper management of a young man with splenomegaly and hypersplenism
refractory to medical treatment with a history of Idiopathic
Thrombocytopenia.
