DOI: 10.1007/s10620-022-07443-6
Abstract: Patients with cirrhosis often develop portal hypertension-associated splenomegaly and hypersplenism, potentially causing severe cytopenia. Systematic assessment on the impact of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) implantation on platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin (Hb), and white blood… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2023.1118693
Abstract: Background Although hepatectomy plus splenectomy is not regularly recommended for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal hypertension related hypersplenism due to the high risk accompanied with surgical procedures for now. Many researchers still believe that hypersplenism… read more here.
