[Partial splenectomy for epidermoid cysts of the spleen in children. Apropos of 3 cases].
Three cases of epidermoid cyst of the spleen treated by partial splenectomy are reported on children. The diagnosis rests now on the ultrasonography. The operative indication is systematic because of the risks of complication. The polar localisation of the cysts permits one to make a conservative surgery. The partial splenectomy is a technique of choice in this benign tumoral pathology. Postoperative digital intravenous subtraction angiography demonstrated the good vascularization of the remaining part of the spleen.
