What can go wrong with a dogs spleen?
Dogs can develop various conditions affecting the spleen, such as splenic tumors (benign or malignant), splenic torsion (twisting), or splenic rupture (trauma or underlying disease). These conditions can cause symptoms like weakness, lethargy, abdominal pain, and gastrointestinal issues. Veterinary evaluation and treatment are necessary for proper diagnosis and management.
Can the spleen regenerate itself?
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.

When comparing blood smears of patient with intact spleens and those of patients without spleens the blood smears of patients without spleens will likely reveal what?
Blood smears of patients without spleens are likely to show Howell-Jolly bodies, which are nuclear remnants normally removed by the spleen. Additionally, there may be an increase in target cells and spherocytes due to altered red blood cell morphology. This can be a diagnostic indicator of asplenia.
