After total splenectomy, the immune function of the patients will be changed, the filtration function of the spleen will disappear, the levels of IgM, regulatin and opsonin will be reduced, the T lymphocyte system will be disordered, the number of peripheral blood lymphocytes and lymphocyte transformation rate will be significantly reduced, leading to a significant increase in the chance of fulminant infection, such as dangerous pneumonia.
