title: [Splenectomy for hematologic indications. Indications, early results (author's transl)].
abstract: In the light of their personal experience of 1,036 splenectomies, the authors review the hematological diseases which still require surgery, viz. certain hemolytic anemias, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, Hodgkin's disease under certain conditions, and sometimes the splenic lesions in certain malignant blood diseases; they analyse their results. Thanks to close collaboration between hematologists and intensive care specialists, the mortality has been reduced to 1.35 p. cent and the morbidity to 3.46 p. cent which leaves 95.19 p. cent without any immediate postoperative complications. The late results depend on the initial disease process.
