Splenectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove the spleen, an organ involved in blood filtration, immune function, and removal of aging blood cells. It may be performed for conditions such as an enlarged or damaged spleen, certain blood disorders, splenic tumors, cysts, or traumatic splenic injury. Depending on the underlying condition, the procedure may be performed using laparoscopic or open surgery.
