Overview

Spleen cancer is an uncommon form of cancer that affects the spleen, an organ in the abdomen that helps filter blood and remove old red blood cells from circulation. Symptoms of spleen cancer can include abdominal pain or swelling, fever, weight loss, night sweats, and feeling full after only eating a small amount of food. While treatments for spleen cancer can depend on the type and stage of the cancer, options may include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. The prognosis for spleen cancer can vary depending on the type and stage of the cancer, however, early detection is crucial for improving patient outcomes. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 2,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with spleen cancer each year.
