[Nonparasitic cysts of the spleen in children].
The article generalizes the experience in the diagnosis and treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the spleen in 8 children aged from 7 to 14 years. The causes of the first visit to the doctor are discussed in detail and the clinical manifestations of this pathological conditions are analysed profoundly. The various methods of examination used in the diagnosis of this disease are evaluated. Seven patients were subjected to operative treatment--splenectomy. In one case a small cyst was recognised by ultrasonic examination, the child is kept under observation. As the result of histological study false (posttraumatic) cysts were diagnosed in 5 and true (epidermoid) cysts in 2 cases. Significant morphological changes in the residual tissue of the removed spleens brings to minimum the possibility of applying autotransplantation methods in splenectomy.
