Splenic rupture is a medical condition where the spleen, an organ located in the upper left abdomen, tears or breaks open. This can occur due to trauma, such as a car accident or a sports injury, or from underlying conditions like infections or tumors. Symptoms may include severe abdominal pain, tenderness, and signs of internal bleeding, such as dizziness or fainting. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scans to confirm the rupture. Treatment often requires surgery to repair or remove the spleen, depending on the severity of the injury. Prompt medical attention is crucial to prevent complications.
