pubmed:abstractText |
Splenectomy, and in some cases pancreatico splenectomy, has been advocated by surgeons in an effort to improve clearance of metastatic nodes to splenic hilum (node 10) and splenic artery (node 11). Although splenectomy has known effects on increasing morbidity and even mortality after a variety of surgical maneuvers including gastrectomy, the longterm effect on survival is controversial. The purpose of this study is to review and analyze the effect of splenectomy on survival in patients having curative gastrectomy for stomach cancer.
