Facterus pronostiques des splenectomies pour rate hematologique

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to identify the prognostic factors of intraoperative haemorrhage, perioperative blood transfusions and morbidity. We collected 120 splenectomies in Beau sejour department of surgery, charles' Nicolle Hospital, Tunis, Tunisia between 1979 and 1999. the descriptive analysis showed sex ratio 0.82 with mean age [ +/- standard deviation] 30.6 +/- 15 year. Idiopathic thrombopenic purpura was the principal disease indicating splenectomy. Morbidity was defined as occurrence of post operative peritoneal sepsis or bleeding. The mortality and morbidity rates were respectively 0.8% and 6.6%. the prognostic anlysis didn't identify predictive factors of intraoperative haemorrhage, however it identified two independent predictive actors of specific morbidity intraoperative haemorrhage [p = 0.03] and preoperative rate of haemoglobin [p = 0.0049]
