Key Points

The study aims to identify risk factors for postoperative complications in Wilson's disease patients after splenectomy.
Analyzed data from a cohort of 986 patients
Evaluated severity of hypersplenism and liver function
Assessed key laboratory markers for risk stratification
Identified significant predictors of complications including hypersplenism severity
Found liver function status correlated with surgical outcomes
Key laboratory markers offered insight into surgical risk

Abstract

These findings suggest that preoperative evaluation of hypersplenism severity, liver function, and key laboratory markers can aid in surgical risk stratification and optimize perioperative management for Wilson's disease patients undergoing splenectomy.
