title: [Pathology of the spleen in children--current possibilities of surgical treatment].
abstract: In the submitted paper the authors review the contemporary state of surgery of the spleen in child age. Surgical treatment is used most frequently in injuries of the spleen, in portal hypertension and in haematological diseases. In a group of patients during the last decade efforts to preserve the spleen are emphasized and experience is reported with the use of therapeutic procedures. The authors emphasize that splenectomy in children should be an exceptional operation.
