Description
Summary:The article focuses on the technical aspects of splenectomy (SE) in 1628 patients using two main techniques: laparoscopy (885 SEs) and laparotomy (743 SEs), with a description of various factors that influence the invasiveness and the success of the surgery. The fact is that in addition to the shape and size of an enlarged spleen, the technical complexity of the SE, especially in laparoscopic access depends on the following factors: perisplenitis, close presentation and fusion of the tail of the pancreas to the spleen, tumor infiltration of splenic vascular pedicle, branchy type of its structure, visceral obesity, compression of the splenic pedicle with enlarged and united lymph nodes. In most cases (60 %), there is a combination of several risk factors, thus making the surgery even more difficult. The indications for splenectomy, as well as its influence on the course of the main hematological disease are not considered in this paper.
