Transaminase is the enzyme that catalyze the reversible transfer of an alpha amino group from an amino acid to an alpha keto acid. This enzyme was first discovered by Braunstein and Kritzman in 1937 in pigeon breast muscle.

Idiopathic hypersplenism is a rare disease in childhood. Recently,we experienced a case of idiopathic hypersplenism in a 6 year old boy who had longstanding history of pallor, bleeding tendency and large palpable mass on his left upper abdomen. He was treated successfully by splenectomy and we report this case with review of literatures.
