A Rare Case: Spontaneous Splenic Rupture Because of Splenic Angiosarcoma

Abstract

Primary 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.
