Splenic artery ligation for traumatic rupture of the spleen. A case report
Abstract
Reports on postsplenectomy septicemia have led to a more conservative attitude to treatment of splenic trauma. A case of traumatic rupture of the spleen treated with splenic artery ligation is presented. In the 5-year follow-up the investigations included repeated scintigraphy. Alternative management of traumatized spleen is discussed.
