  • Title: Experimental and clinical experience with the different possibilities of preserving splenic tissue after rupture of the spleen.
    Author: Feldmann M, Naber M.
    Journal: Prog Pediatr Surg; 1985; 18():169-72. PubMed ID: 3927424.
    Abstract:
    From clinical observation in adults, it is obvious that the preservation of the ruptured spleen is only possible in about 80% of all cases. Current evidence indicates that only the completely or partially intact spleen protects against pneumococcal sepsis. The best method of reimplantation has not yet been found.
