Article Synopsis
- Splenic rupture, often caused by trauma, can be life-threatening, while spontaneous rupture is much rarer.
- An 84-year-old man initially treated for pneumonia experienced sudden abdominal pain and unstable blood pressure, leading to the discovery of a spontaneous splenic rupture.
- After surgery, a tissue exam revealed a splenic hamartoma, which had previously gone unnoticed in medical imaging.

The correct indications for surgical treatment of primary splenic tumors as well as metastases of the spleen are challenging due to the rarity of the various entities. Primary solid splenic tumors include benign lesions, such as hemangiomas, hamartomas and sclerosing angiomatous nodular transformation (SANT) of the spleen. In these cases, surgical treatment is indicated only in the case of inconclusive imaging and after careful consideration of the risk-benefit ratio, even in the case of pronounced symptoms.

The most common hamartoma are kidney hamartoma, spleen hamartoma, liver hamartoma, and lung hamartoma. Urethral hamartoma is extremely rare in clinical practice.

Hamartomas are tumor-like abnormalities typified by the presence of cellular proliferation indigenous to the native site. However, hamartomas maintain growth cessation without the potential for further growth or malignant transformation. Hamartomas are commonly seen in the lungs, kidney, liver, and spleen and rarely occur in the orofacial region.

Cross-sectional imaging of the upper abdomen, especially if intravenous contrast has been administered, will most likely reveal any acute or chronic disease harbored in the spleen. Unless imaging is performed with the specific purpose of evaluating the spleen or characterizing a known splenic lesion, incidentally discovered splenic lesions pose a small challenge. Solitary benign splenic lesions include cysts, hemangiomas, sclerosing angiomatous nodular transformation (SANT), hamartomas, and abscesses, among others.
