Abstract
Thrombocytopenia in transplant period is nearly universal. Platelets are believed to have a significant role in the regeneration of hepatocytes and persistent thrombocytopenia can affect the graft function adversely. This current review discusses, in brief, the aetiology, implications, evaluation, and management of thrombocytopenia in post liver transplant period.
