Spontaneous Splenic Rupture Following Vaginal Delivery in Severe Preeclampsia: A Case Report
2023
Overview
Spontaneous rupture of the spleen during pregnancy is a rare and life-threatening occurrence, typically occurring in the third trimester or postpartum period. The mechanisms behind this phenomenon are still not fully understood, as it can happen without any obvious trauma, and even a minor abdominal strain can trigger it. We present a case of a 25-year-old woman with severe preeclampsia in which vaginal delivery was followed by spontaneous splenic rupture. A splenectomy was performed. Early diagnosis and management are crucial and can be aided by physical examination, ultrasonography, and clinical suspicion. It is imperative for obstetricians to be aware of this potentially fatal condition, as delayed diagnosis and treatment can have serious consequences for both the mother and the neonate.
