Traumatic rupture of the spleen in the newborn is a rare event and is seldom reported in the literature. It can occur to an abnormally enlarged spleen or to a normal spleen. In the latter, it usually is associated with difficult delivery. Previously, the majority of patients died probably because of delayed or missed diagnoses. The classic presentation

Splenic Rupture at Colonoscopy
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1987We report splenic rupture a few hours after a colonoscopy. Even though the patient had no previous history of splenic injury or symptoms attributable to splenocolonic adhesions, exploration revealed adhesions between the spleen and the colon at the level of the splenic flexure.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1983
An emergency splenectomy was necessary 25 days after blunt injury of a patient whose initial peritoneal lavage was negative, whose visceral angiograms were negative, and whose abdomen remained asymptomatic during interval intensive observations. Delayed splenic rupture can occur rarely in the face of extensive diagnostic evaluation.

Journal of Trauma Nursing, 1995
Due to its location in the abdominal cavity, the spleen is a prime target for damage from blunt injury. Splenic rupture can occur immediately or it can be delayed up to 14 days following injury. A case report is presented involving a patient who sustained a ruptured spleen 2 weeks following an altercation.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
To the Editor.— The recent article on occult rupture of the spleen (236:2884, 1976) perpetuates the incorrect clinical lore that 15% of patients with splenic trauma have delayed splenic rupture. The authors state that "delayed splenic rupture occurs when bleeding recurs in the subcapsular hematoma, producing increased pressure and disrupting an ...

An Unusual Presentation of Splenic Rupture
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1988A case is described of rupture of the spleen with a hemoperitoneum which was forced through two abdominal wall hernias to produce potentially misleading ecchymosis of the upper midline and the thigh. The diagnostic significance of the entire clinical presentation is discussed.

Ultrasonography in traumatic splenic rupture
Clinical Radiology, 1992Ultrasound (US) findings and their significance for the clinical outcome were studied in a series of 56 patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of splenic trauma. US was abnormal in 50 cases (89.3%) on admission, revealing intraperitoneal fluid in 41 (73.2%) and a splenic parenchymal injury and/or subcapsular haematoma in 35 (62.5%).

The diagnosis of splenic rupture with subcapsular hematoma is difficult, and there are few reliable diagnostic aids. This report documents the value of spleen scan in a patient whose injury was sustained six days previously.
