文摘BACKGROUND： Laparoscopic splenectomy is considered the gold standard for resecting normal-to-moderately bigger spleens in benign conditions, and in addition could be tried for patients with malignant splenic disorders. However, the safety of laparoscopic splenectomy in patients with hyper- splenism is not well-known. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic splenectomy for pa- tients with hypersplenism secondary to liver cirrhosis by com- paring with the open splenectomy.
