The mechanisms that induce immunodeficiency after splenectomy remain unknown. The aim of this study was to measure the cytokine releasing capacity of the whole blood as an expression of the innate immunity after total (TS) and subtotal/partial splenectomy (S/PS) in order to assess the impact of splenectomy on the individual cytokine reactivity. We prospectively collected blood before (D and at multiple time points after splenectomy (7 days - D7, 30 days - D30, 90 days - D90, 180 days - D180, and 360 days - D36 and measure
