Abstract:
Spontaneous rupture of a splenic artery aneurysm during puerperium is rare and is due to the non-specific clinical apperance, diagnosis is difficult. We describe a case of spontaneous rupture of splenic artery aneurysm after a Cesarean section. CT showed high-density ascites localized in the lesser sac and left retroperitoneum.
