  • Title: [Immune status late after surgery for spleen injuries].
    Author: Shapkin IuG, Kirichuk VF, Masliakov VV.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 2006; (2):14-7. PubMed ID: 16715978.
    Abstract:
    Immune status was studied in patients who had undergone surgery for spleen injuries (splenectomy, autolientransplantation and organ-saving surgeries). It is demonstrated that splenectomy leads to immunosuppression in long-term postoperative period. For prevention of these complications the organ-saving surgeries or autolientransplantation in addition to splenectomy are recommended.
