摘要：

The records of ten patients who underwent splenectomy for Gaucher's disease were reviewed. All patients had the adult type of the disease. The indications for splenectomy were hypersplenism and mechanical problems. The hematological picture returned to normal in all cases and has remained so throughout the follow-up period. The different forms Gaucher's disease and specific diagnostic tests are discussed. Even though splenectomy is indicated when hematological and mechanical problems exist, selective enzymatic replacement therapy seems to be the preferred future mode of treatment.
