The spleen works with the circulatory system. Because it filtefs out foreign organisms that ibfect your BLOOD, removes old or damaged PLATELETS AND RED BLOOD CELLS, srores extra BLOOD, and releases it as needed, and forms some types of WHITE BLOOD CELLS.

the spleen is part of the body's lymphatic system. It assists in the process of producing, storing and distributing white blood cells and lymph - key to the body's immunodefense mechanisms.
