I had my spleen removed 40 years ago and have since had two operations where it was noted that I had two small spleens grow in its place. Since then I have had some ultra sounds and have been told that there are now 4 small spleens. I believe they work as I was never given antibiotics to counter infections and at first it took a while to recover from colds but now I recover quite quickly.
I had my spleen removed after a car accident at age 14. I took antibiotics for 3 years following the accident. (I include this because the above person seems to think antibiotics will inhibit growth.)
I formed a small replacement spleen. These spleens do not come from nowhere and they are not reformations the original spleen.
The form from small lymph like nodes located near the spleen. Only some people have them and occasionally after a spleen is removed (A spleen is basically a large complex lymph node) This small node will take over some of the functions of the spleen.
There is nothing magical about it; It is simply the act of a previously useless node partially taking over the function of the spleen. It does grow in size and can be quite helpful. However it does not (as far as my research shows) protect against encapsulated bacteria like a spleen would.
Encapsulated bacteria being possibly the largest threat to a person lacking a spleen.
This is NOT regeneration of the original spleen.
It is a node taking over some of the functions of the spleen.

What is the function of the spleen?
An organ of the lymphatic system, the spleen filters blood and destroys old blood cells by sending them to the liver and elsewhere. The spleen also removes foreign matter such as bacteria and produces lymphocytes, cells that are essential for immunity. In humans, the spleen also stores blood to meet additional demands. If part of the spleen is removed, the spleen can sometimes regenerate.
What are some examples of MTG regenerate cards and how do they work in gameplay?
Some examples of Magic: The Gathering (MTG) regenerate cards include "Regenerate" and "Krosan Beast." Regenerate allows a creature to avoid destruction by tapping mana and tapping the creature itself. This ability can be used in response to a creature being destroyed, allowing it to stay on the battlefield. "Krosan Beast" has the ability to regenerate itself, making it a resilient creature that can survive combat or removal spells.
