Q

**Pt with hereditary spherocytosis is going to undergo splenectomy, how long will they be @ enhanced risk of pneumococcal sepsis?

A
  • *up to 30 years and probably longer!
  • > so normal treatment for sphero pts is supportive care w/ oral folic acid and blood transfusions during severe anemia
  • ->do splenectomy if its severe or refractory to therapy (abolishes need for transfusions or risk of severe anemia)
  • ->give anti-pneumococcal, HIB, and meningococcal vaccines several weeks prior to surgery
  • ->daily Penicillin prophylaxis for 3-5 years following
