Résumé
Splenomegaly represents a challenge during splenectomy. Despite the laparoscopic approach becoming the gold standard for spleen removal, it remains controversial in this condition since the limited working space and increased risk of bleeding portray the leading causes of conversion, preventing patients from experiencing the benefits of minimally invasive surgery. The robotic platform was used to perform a splenectomy on a 55-year-old female with severe thrombocytopenia due to a relapsed large B cell lymphoma with splenomegaly. The advantages of this approach, favoring less blood loss and precise movements in a small surgical field, may allow MIS to become the first choice in this unfavorable setting, even in hematologic malignancies, which are associated with higher complication rates.
