Summary

This study follows 30 adults with liver cirrhosis, an enlarged spleen, and hypersplenism who are having their spleen removed by keyhole surgery. Researchers will measure changes in cholesterol and other blood fats before surgery and for two years afterward. The goal is to learn whether the surgery can improve abnormal fat levels, which are common in cirrhosis, and help guide future care.
