Core Tip	Pulmonary hypertension is an often under-recognized non-infectious complication after splenectomy. The mechanisms for the development of pulmonary hypertension in this setting are multifactorial and are not clearly elucidated. We attempt to outline and highlight the current evidence behind these proposed mechanisms of post splenectomy related pulmonary hypertension.
