背景:自发性脾破裂(SSR)是一种罕见但可能致命的疾病。它通常与感染等潜在疾病有关,肿瘤,或血液病。SSR也可以发生在健康的脾脏中,没有任何相关的病理,称为特发性脾破裂。症状范围从非特异性腹痛到血流动力学不稳定,经常需要紧急脾切除术。使用CT进行早期识别对于改善结果至关重要。
方法:一名32岁男性出现严重腹痛24小时。检查显示血流动力学稳定,但左上腹压痛。CT显示包膜下血肿和中度腹膜积血,导致SSR的诊断。最初管理保守,患者24小时后出现失血性休克,血红蛋白降至6.2g/dL。剖腹探查术证实上极脾骨折伴明显腹膜积血,需要全脾切除术。术后恢复顺利,患者在术后第6天出院,接受预防性疫苗接种和终身青霉素治疗。
结论:正常脾脏中的SSR极为罕见,并提出了重大的诊断和治疗挑战。确切的机制还不清楚,包括血管异常在内的理论,微创伤,脾压升高,和特发性因素。SSR症状通常是非特异性的,导致误诊。使用成像及时诊断,尤其是对比增强CT,是必不可少的。治疗方法从保守方法到脾切除术各不相同,基于血流动力学稳定性和脾损伤。
结论:正常脾脏自发性破裂是一种危急情况,需要高度临床怀疑才能及时诊断和治疗。需要进一步研究以了解其病理生理学和危险因素。
BACKGROUND: Spontaneous splenic rupture (SSR) is a rare but potentially fatal condition. It is commonly linked to underlying conditions such as infections, neoplasms, or hematologic diseases. SSR can also occur in a healthy spleen without any associated pathology, termed idiopathic splenic rupture. Symptoms range from non-specific abdominal pain to hemodynamic instability, often requiring emergency splenectomy. Early recognition using CT is crucial for improving outcomes.
METHODS: A 32-year-old male presented with severe abdominal pain for 24 h. Examination showed stable hemodynamics but tenderness in the left upper quadrant. CT revealed a subcapsular hematoma and moderate hemoperitoneum, leading to a diagnosis of SSR. Initially managed conservatively, the patient developed hemorrhagic shock 24 h later, with hemoglobin decreasing to 6.2 g/dL. An exploratory laparotomy confirmed a superior pole splenic fracture with significant hemoperitoneum, necessitating a total splenectomy. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 6 with prophylactic vaccinations and lifelong penicillin.
CONCLUSIONS: SSR in a normal spleen is extremely rare and poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The exact mechanisms are unclear, with theories including vascular anomalies, microtrauma, increased splenic pressure, and idiopathic factors. SSR symptoms are often non-specific, leading to misdiagnosis. Timely diagnosis using imaging, particularly contrast-enhanced CT, is essential. Management varies from conservative approaches to splenectomy, based on hemodynamic stability and splenic damage.
CONCLUSIONS: Spontaneous rupture of a normal spleen is a critical condition requiring high clinical suspicion for timely diagnosis and management. Further research is needed to understand its pathophysiology and risk factors.
