Idiopalhic thrombocytopenic purpura is an autoimmune disease in which macrophages of reticuloendothelial system, mainly in the spleen, remove platelets covered by autoantibodies from circulation. By removing the spleen 60-80% of patients are cured. Partial remission is achieved in 10-20% cases. Very few patients do not react on splenectomy. Recurrency of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in a splenectomized patient after already achieved complete remission, may be caused by hypertrophy of one or more of the retained accessory spleens. We present 3 patients, 41, 23 and 44 year old, in whom splenectomy for HP had been performed 10, 3 and 11 years earlier. After full remission which lasted 10, 2.5 and 10.5 years a full recurrency of ITP took place with signs of severe thrombocytopenia and haemorrhagic syndrom. Using ultrasonography, computed tomography and scintigraphy accessory spleen/s, were discovered. By their removal, a full remission was achieved in all 3 patients, but full favorable effect appeared approximately three months after surgery during which period additional steroid therapy was necessary.
