Laparoscopic versus open splenectomy for immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) has been proposed as a substitute to open splenectomy (OS) in the treatment of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The aim of this study was to compare two cohorts of patients with ITP who underwent OS or LS. PATIENTS AND METHODS From February 1990 to January 1997, 27 patients underwent OS and 22 LS. Perioperative characteristics, outcomes, and comp...
متن کاملIntrahepatic splenosis after splenectomy performed for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.
The term splenosis describes autotransplantation or implantation of ectopic splenic tissue within the abdominal cavity or in any other unusual body compartment. In addition to the diagnostic dilemma it causes, splenosis may also lead to persistence or recurrence of hematologic dysfunctions by its preserved immune activity especially in cases of splenectomy due to hematologic indications. Herein...
متن کاملAnalysis of outcome of laparoscopic splenectomy for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura by platelet count.
Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) is now performed routinely in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) refractory to the medical treatment. Low preoperative platelet count was deemed to be a contraindication for a laparoscopic approach; however, there is no data reporting the outcome in those patients. We aimed to evaluate the influence of the preoperative platelet count on the ope...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Splenectomy Reduces the Need for Platelet Transfusion in Patients With Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
OBJECTIVES Laparoscopic splenectomy has been increasingly used in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Because it is associated with minimal abdominal trauma, platelet consumption could be reduced with the laparoscopic approach. The aim of this study was to analyze intraoperative bleeding and the need for apheresis platelets, comparing laparoscopic with open splenectomy. METHODS...
متن کاملAdult idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura without the option of splenectomy.
In this part of Malaysia, consent of splenectomy is virtually unobtainable, so we studied the outcome of ITP without this treatment option. Thirty-two adult patients were seen, but 7 defaulted before therapy evaluation. Of the remaining 25, 17 achieved a complete remission with prednisolone, but in only 8 was this prolonged. Twelve patients, who failed to respond to prednisolone or who required...
