Increased circulating platelet aggregates were revealed in 71% of splenectomized and 35% of non-splenectomized patients with .beta.degree.-thalassemia Hb E disease. This may be causally related to the newly observed high incidences of pulmonary artery thrombosis and hypoxemia in splenectomized thalassemic patients. Antiplatelet aggregation drugs such as aspirin and/or dipyridamole should be given to thalassemic patients after splenectomy.
