Active surveillance data from 12 Canadian tertiary-care hospitals on children hospitalized with postvaccination thrombocytopenia were analyzed. Since 1992, there have been 107 cases reported; while 96% of the children were symptomatic, only 2 had severe bleeding. With treatment, 28 children (26%) had normal platelet counts on discharge from hospital and 93% had documented recovery within 3 months.
