Abstract
Thrombocyte level and functions are vital factors during cardiac surgery. Thrombocytopenia-absent radius syndrome (TAR) is a rare genetic disorder consisting of skeletal abnormalities and thrombocytopenia. In this report, we present the management strategy for a 23-year-old female patient with TAR syndrome who underwent mitral valve repair.
