title: [Segmental resection of the injured human spleen].
abstract: The injured spleen of two patients was segmentally resected. After searching for and ligating the segmental vessels belonging to the injured parts the segments were divided. The minimal bleedings were controlled by reinforced sutures, the capsule of the spleen was sutured at the edges with mattress-U-suture-stitches. There were no complications during the postoperative treatment of both patients. Also a good function of the splenic tissue was proved scintigraphically.
