A member asked:
Has bone marrow taken and diagnosed with thrombocytopenia/splenomegaly..they say i need an operation..no more info..what will the op be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need more info: From the little information you provided the operation is likely to be removal of the spleen. If you do get your spleen removed, do get pneumovac and any other vaccines your doctor may recommend.
