Abstract

We report a case of splenic rupture after cesarean delivery for abruptio placentae. The diagnosis was not suspected until a laparotomy was performed. Diagnosis and management were complicated by disseminated intravascular coagulation and renal failure. The importance of early diagnosis and management modalities are discussed.
