Abstract:
Objective: To compare the selective splenic artery embolization (SSAE) with non-operative therapy of traumatic splenic rupture (TSR). Methods: The clinical data of 23 patients with TSR receiving SSAE and 32 undergoing non-operative therapy between 1992 and 2006 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results: There was no blood transfusion in SSAE group, and one patient was received it in the non-operative therapy group. Two patients in SSAE group had complications with left pleural effusion, and one had left pulmonary infection. One patient with non-operative therapy complicated with spleen abscess (P=0.298). The ratio of successful management in SSAE and non-operative group were 100% (23/23) and 81.3% (26/32) respectively(P=0.035). All the patients in both groups were survival. The mean hospital days in non-operative group(11.9?4.6) were significantly longer than that in SSAE group(7.9?2.1, P=0.045). Conclusions: Splenic injuries with grade Ⅰor Ⅱ are suitable for preserving spleen management. SSAE may be more safe and effective than non-operative therapy.
