    What will happen if the spleen needs to be removed?

    If the spleen continues to bleed, surgery to repair or remove the spleen may be necessary. If the spleen is removed, the body is equipped to take over the functions of the spleen with the liver and lymphatic system, but there is a slight increase in infection problems.

    the spleen is non essential

    evolution...

    That's silly, without modern medicine a splenectomized patient would be dead after a relatively mild infection.
