Of these, 12 patients were examined further for changes in platelet aggregation rate as an index of platelet function. Just after operation, both platelet count and aggregation rate decreased, but at day 2 when the platelet count reached its lowest point, platelet aggregation returned to the preoperative level. Altough platelet aggregation decreased again, it recovered to the preoperative level earlier than did the platelet count.
