    Abstract

    In the case of a boy with a relapsed thrombocytopenic purpura removal of a splenunculus, shown by radioisotope scanning, resulted in a partial remission. The significance of the association of relapse in ITP and the presence of splenunculi remains unknown: investigation of similar cases would clarify the matter.
