Abstract
A high CCI score is common in cirrhotic patients undergoing splenectomy. The CCI is a useful grading system to assess postoperative morbidity in cirrhotic patients undergoing splenectomy. Preoperative blood pressure control is recommended and cirrhotic patients with an elevated MELD score should consider other treatment options for hypersplenism.
