| Abstract | Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) can be found in medical, surgical, obstetrical and gynecological patients. This condition may cause venous and arterial thrombosis if not recognized and given prompt management. The diagnosis of HIT needs history taking and laboratory investigation so that drugs of choice can be specified. This article includes incidence, pathophysiology, diagnosis, laboratory investigation and proper management about HIT to help clinicians understand this disease better. |
