Acute abdominal pain is an important part of the emergency department admissions, and although it has many benign etiologies, it can be difficult to diagnose, manage, and may be fatal if it is omitted. Malaria may present with mild symptoms such as fever, myalgia, headache and fatigue and severe symptoms such as seizures, acute renal insufficiency, intravascular hemolysis, shock, etc. If it is complicated, it could be one of the most dangerous diseases of mankind. We would like to report a patient who was diagnosed with pathological splenic rupture due to malarial infection, admitted to the Emergency Department.

Akut Batının Nadir Bir Sebebi: Malarya Enfeksiyonuna Bağlı Dalak Rüptürü

Öz

Akut karın ağrısı acil servis başvurularının önemli bir parçasıdır ve birçok iyi huylu etiyolojik sebebe sahip olmasına rağmen, teşhis edilmesi ve yönetilmesi oldukça zordur ve ihmal edilmesi durumunda da ölümcül olabilir. Sıtma; ateş, miyalji, baş ağrısı ve yorgunluk gibi hafif semptomlarla ortaya çıkabileceği gibi, nöbetler, akut böbrek yetmezliği, intravasküler hemoliz, şok gibi şiddetli semptomlarla kendini gösterebilir. Eğer komplike hale gelirse, insanlar için en tehlikeli hastalıklarından biri olabilir. Bizler acil servise başvuran ve sıtma enfeksiyonuna bağlı patolojik dalak rüptürü tanısı konan bir hastayı sunmak istiyoruz.
