Partial splenic embolization in children with hypersplenism
Journal of Pediatrics, 1994As an alternative to surgical splenectomy, partial splenic embolization was performed in seven children for hypersplenism manifested by splenomegaly, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and erythrocyte hemolysis. Within a few days, platelet and leukocyte counts rose significantly in all patients and were maintained in six of seven patients during a follow-up

Long-term efficacy of partial splenic embolization in children
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2003To elucidate the role of partial splenic embolization (PSE) procedures, long-term outcome was assessed in terms of the recurrence of thrombocytopenia.A retrospective study was performed after 41 PSE procedures in 36 patients for hypersplenism owing to portal hypertension.

Clinical benefits of partial splenic embolization for cancer patients
Hepatology ResearchAbstractPartial splenic embolization (PSE) has developed as an alternative to surgical splenectomy, mainly to improve hypersplenism and esophagogastric varices in cirrhotic patients. We proposed the novel concept that splenic infarction volume, rather than the splenic infarction ratio, is essential for patients receiving PSE.

Partial splenic embolization (PSE) is a non‐surgical procedure developed to treat hypersplenism as a result of hepatic disease and thus avoid the disadvantages of splenectomy. A femoral artery approach is used for selective catheterization of the splenic artery.

Partial Splenic Embolization in Hypersplenism
Acta Paediatrica, 1988ABSTRACT. Four patients with portal hypertension, oesophageal varices and severe hypersplenism were treated by partial splenic embolization. All showed improvement of blood and platelet counts early in the postoperative period. Three months after embolization IgA and C3 levels increased significantly.

Partial splenic embolization for painful splenomegaly
Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1987Therapeutic splenic embolization has been commonly performed for hypersplenism, tumor palliation, and other indications, but has not been reported as a therapy specifically for pain relief. We describe 1 patient with chronic pain secondary to severe splenomegaly in whom surgery was contraindicated. Selective partial splenic embolization achieved a pain-
