    AbstractPlatelet storage pool disorders (PSPDs) constitute a diverse group of hematologic abnormalities, which share the common feature of a deficiency in the ability of platelets to aggregate. Parturients with PSPD can present management challenges to their care team when they present for childbirth, especially with regard to neuraxial anesthesia. We report a series of 2 deliveries from unrelated patients affected by PSPD. In particular, we highlight the utility of rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and the need for a multidisciplinary approach to the care of patients with this hematologic abnormality.Copyright © 2023 International Anesthesia Research Society.
