Splenic aneurysm rupture. Case report and review of the literature.
The authors report a case of splenic aneurysm rupture in a 61-year-old woman. The diagnosis was made by computed tomography in the second phase of a "double rupture phenomenon" in circulatory collapse. This was successfully treated by aneurysmectomy and splenectomy. The case is reported together with the literature review.
