Abstract

It is a rare clinical phenomenon when a normal spleen ruptures spontaneously without any prior trauma. We present a 49-year-old male patient who was discovered to have a splenic rupture after he was referred to our facility as a case of unstable angina for cardiac catheterization based on nonspecific electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities and symptoms of chest discomfort coupled with abdominal pain and shortness of breath. He received aspirin, clopidogrel, and heparin before arriving at our emergency department. A splenectomy was performed for the patient, and he recovered well. Despite the rarity of spontaneous splenic rupture, physicians must consider it while evaluating elderly patients who are experiencing abdominal pain while on anticoagulants. Splenic rupture should always be considered, and early diagnosis is essential for a better outcome.
