  • Title: Peliosis lienis: uncommon cause of rupture of the spleen.
    Author: Gábor S, Back F, Csiffáry D.
    Journal: Pathol Res Pract; 1992 Apr; 188(3):380-2; discussion 382-3. PubMed ID: 1626002.
    Abstract:
    Rare anomaly: peliosis lienis, which was found in the spleen of a woman splenectomised for rupture, is presented. Speculations on the etio-pathogenesis of this peculiar disorder are discussed based on literary data. The awareness of this pathological curiosity may be of practical importance because of the hazard of life-threatening haemorrhagic consequences following rupture of the lesions.
