Abstract:

Splenic injuries causedby traumatic events are common in the emergency departments, mostly because the spleen is frequently affected in trauma. The lesions of the spleen can be diagnosed using a contrast enhanced computed tomography and based on the results, the injury of the spleen is graded. The management of the patient can be operative or nonoperative. The choice of treatment is decided by the hemodynamic stability of the patient.
