Análise de sobrevivência relacionada ao sexo, após esplenectomia, em modelo animal

Abstract: É sabido que a esplenectomia causa propensão a infecções, principalmente aquelas causadas por microorganismos capsulados. Essas complicações acompanham-se de maior mortalidade e conseqüente menor sobrevida dos indivíduos asplênicos. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a sobrevida em relação ao sexo de ratos submetidos a esplenectomia total. Foram estudados 34 ratos, distribuídos em dois grupos, sendo o Grupo 1 (n=14) controle, animais submetidos apenas a laparotomia e o Grupo 2 (n=20) submetidos a espl… Show more

“…Its relevance is resides in the lack of knowledge of the the path of parenchymal circulation of this organ. Studies on the anatomy and splenic operations used findings from animals merged to humans' [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]22 . Although there are differences in the anatomy and physiology of the spleen between species, the knowledge gained in animal studies may assist in research on humans.…”

“…Within the spleen, arteries follow the trabeculae as trabecular arteries. Upon leaving the trabeculae, the arteries are surrounded by the white pulp in the form of a lymphocytes sheath (periarterial lymphatic sheat -PALS) [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] .…”

“…Spleen is an organ belonging to the phagocytic mononuclear system; it performs several functions, mainly the defense of the organism 1 . It also works as immune filter, capable of cleaning approximately 4% of the total volume of blood in the body per minute, of producing lymphocytes and monocytes, of making phagocytosis of foreign particles, bacteria, viruses and leucocytes, as well as of processing serum factors such as opsonins, which stimulate phagocytosis 2 . Improvements in the knowledge about the spleen and its functions have influenced the adoption of medical conducts focused on preserving the splenic tissue 3 , 4 .…”
