Partial splenectomy using a laparoscopic bipolar radiofrequency device: A case report

Abstract: We report a 51-year-old female patient with a solitary lymphangioma located in the upper splenic pole which was managed successfully with laparoscopic partial splenectomy. Surgery lasted 170 min and did not require blood transfusions. The patient recovered well post-operatively and was asymptomatic at the 3-mo follow-up. She had a normal platelet count and no recurrence on ultrasonography or computed tomography. Laparoscopic partial splenectomy is a safe, minimally invasive technique for the treatment of solit… Show more

“…Forty‐nine publications were selected for review of full text and three duplicate publications, one article undergone LPS for pigs not human, and eight articles that we could not get detailed data were excluded from our review. Forty‐four [5, 6, 11–52] with a total of 252 patients undergoing LPS or LSS met the criteria for analysis. These included four case‐matched comparative studies.…”

“…The most common indications in these series were splenic cystic lesions( n = 84) [5, 6, 12–30, 51, 52], followed by splenic hematological diseases ( n = 70) [5, 6, 21, 24, 31, 33–35], non‐cystic intraparenchymal lesions ( n = 59) [5, 6, 20–24, 36–44, 50, 52], spleen rupture ( n = 22) [11, 45], splenomegaly of unknown origin ( n = 9) [5], splenic abscess ( n = 3) [23, 42, 49], severe splenic pain due to ischemia provoked by vascular obstruction of the spleen ( n = 2) [47], and each for Gandy–Gamna bodies, Benign metaplasia, and undiagnosed splenic lesion [22, 48]. The most common surgical procedures performed in these series were four‐trocar laparoscopic splenectomy ( n = 117) [14, 16–18, 20, 22–24, 28, 30, 31, 35, 38, 39, 42, 43, 45, 47, 48, 50, 51], followed by three‐trocar laparoscopic splenectomy ( n = 53) [5, 15, 19, 21,...…”

“…Some techniques were described for splenic parenchymal transection, including ultrasonic dissectors, LigaSure (Covidien, USA), endovascular stapling and radiofrequency ablative. [ 6 7 ] Each technique has its potential advantages, but there is no solid evidence that one technique is better than the other for LPS. The objective of the present study is to explore the feasibility and safety of pre-coagulation of a 915 MHz microwave (MW) in LPS.…”
