Abstract
- Splenic hemangioma, a vascular malformation represents the most common benign primary neoplasm of the spleen with fewer than 100 cases reported in literature. Rupture of hemangioma is a life threatening complication occurring mostly in third trimester or puerperium with maternal mortality of 70% and fetal mortality of 90-95%. We herein report the first case of rupture of capillary hemangioma of spleen occurring in mid trimester pregnancy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
