Abstract
BACKGROUND
Splenic artery aneurysms are uncommon even though they are second only to those of the aorto-iliac system. There is also controversy regarding their management.
METHODS
We report the case of a 50-year-old patient with ruptured splenic artery aneurysm and review the literature regarding its diagnosis and management.
RESULTS
The patient underwent emergency laparotomy and splenectomy was performed.
CONCLUSION
Resuscitation and an aggressive surgical approach should be taken in order to save the life of the patients.
