title: [Splenic rupture following arthroscopy].
abstract: Retroperitoneal bleeding from splenic rupture occurred after initially uneventful arthroscopy. The diagnosis was finally set up in CT-scan, whilst peritoneal lavage was negative. Since there was no incidence of previous abdominal trauma and no abnormal findings in histology, spontaneous perioperative splenic rupture has been discussed.
