What organ do the job of the spleen after a spleenectomy?
Some of the jobs of the spleen are taken over by the liver, but not all. The spleen stores platelets for instance. This job is not done by anything after the spleen is removed, but this is really not too big of a deal. The spleen also takes apart red blood cells after they are dead and can reuse the material taken from them (This process also creates bilirubin which is taken by the liver and is an ingredient of bile, the substance stored in your gallbladder and used in digestion). The spleen is also part of your lymphatic and immune system, so there are some jobs that go undone. There are meds that patients of spleen removal must take for the rest of their life after a splenectomy.
