False aneurysm or visceral artery pseudoaneurysm (VAPA) results from a tear in the vessel wall due to trauma with subsequent periarterial haematoma formation. VAPA is relatively rare, with a reported incidence of 0.1-0.2%, although the actual incidence is not known since many are asymptomatic. Splenic artery pseudoaneurysm is even more rare pathology. Only around 200 cases have been described in the literature. The case report below describes a spontaneous rupture of splenic artery pseudoaneurysm.
假性动脉瘤或内脏动脉假性动脉瘤（VAPA）是由创伤导致血管壁撕裂，随后形成动脉周围血肿引起的。VAPA相对少见，报告的发病率为0.1%-0.2%，不过由于许多病例无症状，实际发病率尚不清楚。脾动脉假性动脉瘤是更为罕见的病理情况。文献中仅描述了约200例病例。以下病例报告描述了一例脾动脉假性动脉瘤自发性破裂。
