- It may lead to auto infarction - result in hypofunction.
- Splenectomy have increased risk from polysaccharide encapsulated bacteria, i.e. Neisseria meningitis, Haemophilus influenzae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Gallbladder
Main article: Gallbladder
- Pigment stones.
Kidney
- Renal medullary carcinoma associated with sickle cell trait (heterozygotes for the sickle cell allele[2]) or sickle cell disease.
- Papillary necrosis.[2]
- Nephrotic syndrome.[2]
- Renal infarction.[2]
