Abstract
In a 46-year-old woman endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, performed to evaluate acute pancreatitis, was followed by splenic rupture, probably due to manipulation of the patient on the X-ray table in combination with the endoscopic procedure. The excised spleen was histologically normal. Various causes of splenic rupture are discussed.Entities:
