dc.description.abstract | Spentaneous rupture of spleen, is a rare abdominal catastrophy, during pregnancy and labour , associated with 100% maternal and foetal mortality if not diagnosed in time. An awareness about this rare entity on the part of an obstetrician leading to timely diagnosis, prompt splenectomy and proper replacement` of blood provides good prognosis for mother and foetus. A rare case of spontaneous rupture of NORMAL spleen during labour with delivery of a live baby by lower segment caesarean section followed by splenectomy is presented and the literature is reviewed. | en |
