DELAYED SPLENIC RUPTURE: A CLINICAL SYNDROME FOLLOWING TRAUMA: REPORT OF FOUR CASES WITH AN ANALYSIS OF ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SEVEN CASES COLLECTED FROM THE LITERATUREArchives of Surgery, 46
Abstract The literature on traumatic rupture of the spleen is replete with articles on this subject. It is not the purpose of this survey to encompass, to any extent, a review. We felt that a summation of 68 cases, occurring in the Albany Hospital, was worth while. Accordingly, all such cases were analyzed in a classical manner. During the years 1935-1958 inclusive there have been 61,445 cases admitted on the surgical services excluding those which were entered under the specialties. The 68 cases represented in this report account for 0.11%. Everyone agrees that the incidence of splenic wounding in blunt abdominal trauma amounts to almost 50%, and this is exclusive of splenic injury during elective procedures, such as hiatus hernia repair, etc. The high incidence of splenic lacerations among patients with abdominal injuries reflects the frequency of blunt trauma, especially that caused by automobile accidents. In our group the automobile as References 1. Scott, H. W., Jr., and Bowman, J. R.: Traumatic Rupture of the Spleen in Children , J.A.M.A. 130:270-273, 1946.Crossref 2. McIndoe, A.
