title: [Expert assessment of reduced earning capacity in legal accident insurance following traumatic loss of the spleen].
abstract: For legally binding assessment of reduced earning capacity after loss of spleen in adolescents and adults--in accordance with the Federal German compulsory accident insurance regulations--the article offers a brief review of expertising practice and then proceeds to examine dogmatically which of the cases of subsequent damage after loss of spleen are relevant according to German social security laws. The risk covered by Federal German compulsory accident insurance is critically discussed while bearing in mind that assessment of reduced earning capacity is done exclusively under the viewpoint of objectifiable functional losses.
