title: [Dysfunction of platelets in uremia].
abstract: Both bleeding and thrombosis may complicate the course of chronic uremia. The main cause of bleeding diathesis is a dysfunction of the primary hemostasis. The widespread improvement of conservative and substitutive therapy has considerably ameliorated the frequency of hemorrhagic complications in uremic patients. The aim of the study review modern views on pathogenesis of bleeding diathesis with particular attention paid to the role of platelets, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities.
