  • Title: Spontaneous arterial calcification: a possible etiology for spontaneous splenic rupture in a patient on maintenance hemodialysis.
    Author: Hou YC, Chen YL, Lu KC.
    Journal: Blood Purif; 2014; 38(2):96-9. PubMed ID: 25378086.
    Abstract:
    Spontaneous splenic rupture (SSR) is a rare condition in contrast to traumatic splenic hematoma, and vascular abnormality has rarely mentioned as an etiology in SSR with patients who had chronic kidney disease. We reported a 80-year-old female whose SSR might be related to splenic arterial calcification.
