Splenectomy is generally a major surgery, and there are two types of surgery for splenectomy, a traditional open surgery and a laparoscopic splenectomy. In general, traditional open surgery has a more traumatic surface, more bleeding, longer recovery time, and a higher chance of postoperative complications such as infection, splenic fossa abscess, fatty liquefaction, and pleural effusion. Laparoscopic surgery is minimally invasive, less invasive, and the patient recovers faster after surgery, which reduces the risk of postoperative complications. However, laparoscopic surgery requires higher cardiopulmonary function, if the patient is older and suffers from pulmonary or cardiovascular disease patients generally do not use laparoscopic surgery way, the risk is greater. Patients should actively cooperate with the doctor to do a good job of postoperative care after surgery, so as not to cause infection and aggravate the condition.
