Abstract
Inherited platelet disorders are important causes of bleeding that can quantitatively and qualitatively alter platelets, impairing their function. The purpose of this review is to summarize current knowledge on the different types of inherited platelet disorders, their clinical and laboratory features, molecular genetic causes, and the therapies used in clinical practice to manage these conditions.Keywords
