Excerpt

Splenic injury can occur after blunt abdominal trauma. Subsequent splenic bleeding may be life-threatening [1]. Splenic injury should be managed and radiologically graded according to the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) recommendations for management of splenic trauma [2]. In general, grades of up to III and IV should usually be treated with distal and/or proximal artery splenic embolization (SAE) or surgical treatment, whereas grades I and II should be treated with non-operative management, although there is no definite consensus [1]. …
