Malaria-Associated Spontaneous Splenic Rupture With Coagulopathy and Hemodynamic Compromise: A Case Report.

Spontaneous splenic rupture is a rare, life-threatening condition that occurs without trauma, often presenting diagnostic challenges due to nonspecific symptoms. The risk of spontaneous splenic rupture increases significantly with underlying pathological conditions, including malaria, where rapid splenic enlargement and altered red blood cell surface characteristics likely contribute to the increased risk of rupture. Here, we describe the case of a 23-year-old male patient who presented with severe abdominal pain and hypotension.
