A member asked:
Can you tell me if i had a ruptured spleen would i be dead by now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well, that depends.: Sometimes a person with a mild break to the spleen surface can heal with rest / conservative tx. While others with more serious rupture may hemorrhage to death quickly without immediate surgery. Anyone w a possible splenic rupture requires prompt medical evaluation.
