Spontaneous rupture of the spleen in relation to a non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Abstract
A 35-year-old man was admitted for surgery with complaints of left upper abdominal quadrant pain, tachycardia and hypotension with no history of trauma. A splenomegaly had just been diagnosed one week before, during, the work up for asthenia. An immediate CT scan revealed an intraperitoneal haemorrhage with splenic rupture. During emergency laparotomy, a splenic rupture was found and a splenectomy was performed. Histopathology of the spleen confirmed the diagnosis of a non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
