Thirty-eight years ago, in 1983, Holiday, Mammen and Gilroy employed the term sticky platelet syndrome (SPS) to describe a syndrome identified in a group of young persons with cerebral infarction and platelet hyperaggregability. By then, I was returning to my hometown in Puebla, México, after completing a post-graduate research fellowship in hematology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN, where I had the chance to meet real giants of the thrombosis and hemostasis field such as Walter Bowie, William Nichols, Kenneth Mann and David Fass, among others. Despite the fact that I was not working with them, personal encounters resulted in my increasing interest in both thrombosis and hemostasis, since my attention was then focused in the hematological malignancies and bone marrow transplantation topics.
