A bicyclist sustained a splenic laceration and brief loss of consciousness after a car accident. The splenic injury was managed non-operatively, and the head CT was negative.

Area of Science:

Trauma Surgery
Emergency Medicine
Radiology

Background:

A case report detailing a motor vehicle collision involving a vulnerable road user.
Focuses on the diagnostic and management challenges of blunt abdominal trauma in a young adult.

Observation:

A 28-year-old female bicyclist presented after being struck by a motor vehicle.
Clinical presentation included a history of transient loss of consciousness.
Initial trauma work-up was performed.

Findings:

Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a splenic laceration.
Head CT imaging was negative for intracranial injury.
Splenic laceration managed conservatively with observation.

Implications:
