[Traumatic rupture of the spleen. Histopathologic findings].
The most common causes of splenic rupture are blunt injury and surgical intervention in abdominal cavity. Morphological investigation of the spleen often shows but a small capsular laceration as well as haemorrhage and granulocytic infiltration in microscopy of its margins. The laceration may be sometimes difficult to find. There are two types of microscopical haemorrhage. One in sinus-lacking subcapsular tissue zone, the other in deeper layers. In this case the tissue haemorrhage is diffuse, sometimes within or around the marginal zone. The sinuses are neither collapsed nor obturated by any material even close to margins of the wound.
