A case of partial splenic embolisation (PSE) that was performed in a girl with severe leucothrombocytopenia due to hypersplenism is described. Treatment with PSE is a safe and effective alternative to splenectomy that prevents clinical complications due to haematological disorders and improves hypersplenism before liver transplantation.
متن کاملRandomized clinical trial of splenic radiofrequency ablation versus splenectomy for severe hypersplenism.
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a relatively new treatment for hypersplenism. The results of a randomized clinical trial comparing RFA and splenectomy with 5 years of follow-up are reported. METHODS Fifty-seven patients with hypersplenism due to liver cirrhosis were assigned randomly (in a 1 : 2 ratio) to splenectomy (19 patients) or RFA (38). The RFA group was subdivided accordin...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Splenectomy for the Elderly Liver Cirrhotic Patients With Hypersplenism
A growing body of evidence has supported the benefits of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) for hypersplenism due to liver cirrhosis. With the increased proportion of elderly persons worldwide, it is necessary to investigate the risks and benefits of LS in elderly liver cirrhotic patients.From September 2003 to March 2012, LS and open splenectomy (OS) were performed for 21 (Group 1) and 19 (Group 3)...
متن کاملThe importance of the anatomy of the splenic artery and its branches in splenic artery embolisation.
Splenic artery embolisation can be performed preoperatively in an attempt to decrease thrombocyte destruction, or as an alternative to surgery, to obtain partial or total organ ablation. During this procedure, it is very important to deliver embolising agents distal to the origin to pancreatic branches to avoid the risk of pancreatitis. Therefore, a detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the sple...
