[Nonparasitic splenic cysts--therapeutic solutions].
Between 2002-2009, 25 cases of non-parasytic splenic cysts were treated in the Center of General Surgery and Liver Transplantation of Fundeni Clinical Institute. Among these cases, 11 patients were approached classically (8 total splenectomie and 3 partial cystectomies) and 14 patients were operated in a minimally invasive fashion (there were 3 total splenectomies, 2 subtotal splenectomies and 7 partial cystectomies, all accomplished laparoscopically, and one robotic total splenectomy and one robotic subtotal splenectomy). Recurrence rates vary according to the procedure. Laparoscopic partial cystectomy is a safe and feasible method, with minimal morbidity but with higher recurrence rates. The treatment of choice is the minimally invasive ideal cystectomy, achieved by laparoscopic partial splenectomy, that has the benefits of preserving the immune function of the spleen.
