| Core Tip |
Splenectomy is usually performed as part of the distal pancreatectomy procedure due to the organs' close anatomic relationship and the inherent difficulty in separating or preserving the splenic blood supply. Nonetheless, the spleen plays an important role in immunological response, and its preservation has been linked to improvements in overall short- and long-term outcomes. As a result, for benign pancreatic lesions splenic preservation is preferable to standard splenectomy. As minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy has risen in popularity, positive long-term outcomes are largely debated. |
