Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Gastrointestinal Surgery

Background:

  • Splenic artery aneurysms are rare but serious vascular conditions.
  • Management strategies for splenic artery aneurysms remain debated.

Observation:

  • A case report details a 50-year-old patient with a ruptured splenic artery aneurysm.
  • Literature review on diagnosis and management of splenic artery aneurysms was conducted.

Findings:

  • The patient underwent emergency laparotomy.
  • Splenectomy was performed as the surgical intervention.

Implications:

  • Aggressive surgical management, including splenectomy, is vital for survival.
  • Prompt resuscitation is essential for patients with ruptured splenic artery aneurysms.
