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.
Can you live without your spleen?
Yes you can, however chances are you will have to take antibiotics or other medication to help prevent infection. The spleen helps your immune system fight off infection as well as to remove old or damaged blood cells. It is best to have a healthy spleen but if it ruptures you may have to have it removed.
How many spleens does a cat have?
Six: Left lateral, left medial, right medial, right lateral, caudate and quadrate. http://learning.mgccc.cc.ms.us/science/cat/sld024.htm http://learning.mgccc.cc.ms.us/science/cat/sld025.htm The quadrate lobe is hard to see. You also don't get a good look at it in those pictures. There's no substitute for a real cat. It is also normal for some cats to only have 5 lobes. cats have 5 lobes: right lateral, caudate, right lateral, left median, left lateral.

One of the main functions of the spleen is to remove "old" platelets from the blood supply. This should mean that the blood smears from the patients without spleens would show far higher levels of platelets than would be seen in the samples from those with spleens.
