MOHANDAS, Prema; KRIM, Ahmed O.A. e SAMSON, Paul. Unexpected finding of splenic peliosis in a traumatic spleen in a patient with cleidocranial dysplasia. S. Afr. J. radiol. (Online) [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.1, pp.1-3. ISSN 2078-6778. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/sajr.v22i1.1371.
We present a case of traumatic rupture of the spleen in a man with cleidocranial dysplasia. The computed tomography imaging showed multiple low-grade lacerations of the spleen which initially led to conservative patient management. However, with clinical deterioration, the patient underwent an emergent splenectomy. Post-operative histology revealed splenic peliosis with multiple lacerations. The radiological and surgical management of post-traumatic splenic peliosis may differ from those with an otherwise normal spleen.
