Abstract

Objective To observe the effect of selective partial spleen embolization(PSE) in the management of hypersplenism.Methods The catheterization of the femoral artery was carried out with Seldinger's method.The tip of catheter was pushed to the spleen artery and the grain of gelfoam disinfected five times under high pressure was injected to embolize partial spleen artery.Results There was no significant differece between the partial spleen embolization in 20 cases and splenectomy of in 15 cases.Conclusion PSE can take the place of surgical splenectomy.
