Objective: To investigate whether low preoperative platelet count increased blood loss in splenectomy and esophagogastric devascularization for hepatitis B cirrhosis patients, and to discuss the necessity of prophylactic platelet transfusion in patients with platelet count less than 50 × 109 /L. Methods: 105 patients who received splenectomy from January 2008 to July 2014 were divided into three groups based on their preoperative platelet counts: <30 × 109 /L (group 1), 30-50 × 109 /L (group 2), >50 × 109 /L (group 3). Their operation time, blood loss, postoperative platelet count of 1st and 3rd day, drainage volume, postoperative hospital stay and operation associated complications were compared between the 3 groups.
