Non-traumatic splenic rupture and pancreatic pseudocyst as a complication of pancreatitis: A case report

Nontraumatic splenic rupture is a rare pancreatitis complication.

description Nontraumatic splenic rupture is a rare pancreatitis complication. We present a 61-year-old chronic alcoholic male with acute on chronic pancreatitis, which progressed to pseudocyst, splenic vein thrombosis, splenic rupture, and eventually hemoperitoneum. Later, the patient required an emergency laparotomy and splenectomy. Early detection and treatment of pancreatitis and pseudocyst can help prevent a rare but potentially fatal complication like an acute rupture.
