Abstract

SynopsisA rare case of a massive hemorrhage from a ruptured splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) in pregnancy that resulted in an emergency laparotomy, splenectomy, and cesarean section with maternal survival, but fetal loss, is presented. The development of protocols or guidelines for the early identification or prevention of SAA rupture in pregnancy would be of greater importance than reactive measures to control acute SAA bleeds.
