- Abstract
Atraumatic splenic rupture (AMR) is a life-threatening condition with a wide range of aetiologies, and it may present with a vague symptomatology. Therefore, AMR can be diagnostically challenging. In this review, we wish to focus on the fact that guidelines only exist for traumatic splenic rupture although they may be applicable for AMR too. In addition, a stringent ABCDE approach for clinical examination may early and reliable diagnose the patients and guide further imaging examination and treatment., (Published under Open Access CC-BY-NC-BD 4.0. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/.)
