dc.description.abstractBackground: Although splenic abnormalities are common in patients with lupus, spontaneous rupture of spleen is extremely rare. Observations: A 15-year-old boy with new-onset Evans syndrome subsequently diagnosed as systemic lupus erythematosus developed spontaneous rupture of spleen during the course of his illness. Despite the severe thrombocytopenia, he was managed conservatively with gradual regression of hematoma without further complication. Conclusions: Splenic rupture may occur spontaneously in the course of systemic lupus erythematosus. We conclude that conservative treatment of splenic rupture may be preferred especially in immunocompromised patients to avoid surgical complications.en_US
