摘要
Whether COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality are increased in splenectomized patients is unknown. The study by Bianchi et al. suggests increased hospitalizations and mortality rates in splenectomized patients, despite observing similar infection rates when compared to the general population. Commentary on: Bianchi et al. Burden of COVID19 disease and vaccine coverages in Apulian splenectomized patients. A retrospective observational study, Br J Haematol 2023. doi: 10.1111/bjh.18731.
