title: [Splenic rupture: conservative treatment with sonographic control of its course].
abstract: The spleen is the abdominal organ most frequently damaged in blunt abdominal trauma. Because of the high incidence of fatal sepsis after splenectomy, conservative treatment is getting increasingly important. Besides CT and radionuclide scanning, sonography has become an increasingly important tool in diagnosis and follow-up.
