Atraumatic splenic rupture (ASR) is an unfamiliar entity that is potentially life-threatening if there is a delay in the diagnosis. Due to its rarity and its non-specific presentation, it can be a challenge to diagnose early. In this report, we present a case of a 42-year-old male patient who presented to the emergency department with nonspecific abdominal pain and had no past medical history.

Immune thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) is defined as a platelet count lower than 100 × 10ˆ9/L, in the absence of known abnormalities in white blood cells, normal hemoglobin with generalized purpuric rash: making it a diagnosis of exclusion.1-2 ITP is due to destruction of platelets in the spleen via autoantibodies, resulting in reduced platelet counts.3 Though rare, ITP is linked with spontaneous retrobulbar hemorrhage (SRH).

Despite significant progress in the medical field, there is still a pressing need for minimal-invasive tools to assist with decision-making, especially in cases of polytrauma. Our team explored the potential of serum-derived large extracellular vesicles, so called microparticles/microvesicles/ectosomes, to serve as a supportive tool in decision-making in polytrauma situations. We focused on whether monocyte derived large EVs may differentiate between polytrauma patients with internal organ injury (ISS > 15) and those without.
