Abstract

In brief A rugby player who had a spleen injury was sent home after initial evaluation because he was hemo-dynamically stable. But the next day he reported to the emergency department after a near-syncopal episode. This case illustrates the need for careful observation of athletes who have abdominal injuries and the importance of preparticipation screening.
