Approach to hypersplenism due to splenic metastasis of breast cancer: A case report

Meme kanserinin en sik metastaz bolgeleri kemikler, akcigerler, karaciger, lenf nodlari ve beyindir. Meme kanserinin dalaga metastazi ise cok nadirdir. Hipersplenizm, karsinomalarda ciddi hemolitik aneminin bir nedeni olarak veya da-lak metastazina bagli asiri dalak buyumesiyle ortaya cikar. Hipersplenizme bagli pansitopeninin tedavisinde splenek-tomi yararli olabilmektedir. Biz hipersplenizm ile iliskili sitopeniyi duzeltmek icin splenektomi yapilan dalak metastazli nadir bir meme kanseri olgusunu sunduk. Bu olgunun isiginda metastatik kanserli hastalarda dalak metastazina bagli olusan hipersplenizm tedavisinde splenektomi faydali olabilmektedir.
