|
| Mr. Moore signed a written consent form authorizing a splenectomy, and surgeons removed his spleen. |
|
| The patient operated in QFCUCH, is a 13 year old girl with a haematological disease for which splenectomy was necessary. |
|
| These thrombocytopenia may be acquired by splenectomy, by autoimmune reaction or by immuno-allergy. |
|
| These infections are most common in the first two years after splenectomy and the risk is greatest in children. |
|
| Even in children with enlarged spleens, repair or partial resection, rather than total splenectomy, should be done, when feasible. |
|
|
|
| Mr M was taken to the OR for an exploratory laparotomy and splenectomy. |
|
| The circulating nurse connects the video camera cords, light cord, carbon dioxide tubing, and other connections so the laparoscopic splenectomy procedure can begin. |

| One month after total splenectomy, the CA19-9 concentration was within the reference interval. |
|
| First-line treatment of ITP is with oral glucocorticoids, with splenectomy employed as second-line treatment. |

|
| Some travel clinics have developed a letter which the traveller can show to local physicians, indicating the history of splenectomy, risks and possible approaches to management. |
|
| It is suspected that the absence of immune-regulating factors released from the spleen is related to the increase in susceptibility to cardiovascular disease in individuals who have undergone a splenectomy. |
|
| The effectiveness of splenectomy is attributed to the removal of the organ in which red cells, coated with antibody, are selectively trapped and destroyed. |
|
| The patient underwent distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy with histologic diagnosis of a 7 cm solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm. |
|

|
| Iatrogenic splenectomy may lead to the risk of subsequent overwhelming post-splenectomy infection and longterm risk of cardiovascular complications. |
|
| Splenectomy effectively arrests the extravascular hemolysis and prevents its long-term complications, such as cholelithiasis and aplastic crises. |
