Is it possible for spleen nodules to grow in the lungs of a human?
No. Spleen nodules cannot grow in human or any other lungs. Spleen nodules grow on the spleen. There are nodules that do grow in the lungs, however.
You had low blood platelets and had your spleen removed and now it may be be that your spleen is regrowing what is the likelyhood of this occurring?
It is rare for the spleen to regrow after a splenectomy, as the procedure typically involves removing the entire spleen. If a small remnant of the spleen was left behind during surgery, it is possible for it to grow back, but this is uncommon. It is best to consult with a healthcare provider for more specific information about your individual case.
Does a human spleen grow any bigger after he's born?
Yes
Can the spleen regenerate itself?
I had my spleen removed 40 years ago and have since had two operations where it was noted that I had two small spleens grow in its place. Since then I have had some ultra sounds and have been told that there are now 4 small spleens. I believe they work as I was never given antibiotics to counter infections and at first it took a while to recover from colds but now I recover quite quickly. I had my spleen removed after a car accident at age 14. I took antibiotics for 3 years following the accident. (I include this because the above person seems to think antibiotics will inhibit growth.) I formed a small replacement spleen. These spleens do not come from nowhere and they are not reformations the original spleen. The form from small lymph like nodes located near the spleen. Only some people have them and occasionally after a spleen is removed (A spleen is basically a large complex lymph node) This small node will take over some of the functions of the spleen. There is nothing magical about it; It is simply the act of a previously useless node partially taking over the function of the spleen. It does grow in size and can be quite helpful. However it does not (as far as my research shows) protect against encapsulated bacteria like a spleen would. Encapsulated bacteria being possibly the largest threat to a person lacking a spleen. This is NOT regeneration of the original spleen. It is a node taking over some of the functions of the spleen.
Why metastasis does not occur in spleen and muscle?
Metastasis typically requires a conducive microenvironment for cancer cells to establish and grow at distant sites. Spleen and muscle tissues do not provide the ideal conditions for cancer cells to thrive due to their unique tissue composition and lack of factors that support cancer cell survival and growth. Additionally, the immune system within the spleen plays a role in surveillance and elimination of abnormal cells, making it less likely for cancer cells to colonize and grow in the spleen.
Can you injure your spleen from blunt force trauma to the back?
Yes, it is possible to injure your spleen from blunt force trauma to the back.
