Abstract

The fine structural characteristics of the initial hemostatic plug and its constituent thrombocytes is described. The observations made in this study provide a morphological base for further study of the hemostatic process in bird embryos and point out certain unusual features of the aggregated thrombocyte. Natural hemostasis following trauma was found to be rapid, efficient, and basically the same throughout the 3–18-day period which was examined. Most organelles did not exhibit any unusual morphology. An unusual fusion of large vesicles and the nuclear envelope of the thrombocyte is described.
