splenic angiosarcoma and associated spontaneous splenic rupture are very rare
diseases. In this article, we discussed a patient who had the complaint of
sudden onset abdominal pain, had shock findings in the first examination and
who was diagnosed with splenic rupture in the later evaluation. In our case,
the patient was diagnosed with angiosarcoma by post-operative pathology
material results. Since mortality rate is very high in angiosarcoma patients
who develop splenic rupture; splenectomy should be performed in the early period,
if patients are diagnosed with splenic angiosarcoma.   </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={Kayseri Şehir Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi}
