Zusammenfassung

Spontaneous splenic rupture is a rare association of infectious mononucleosis. Although unusual, it is the most lethal complication of Ebstein Barr virus (EBV) infection. Diagnosis should be suspected in patients with infectious mononucleosis who begin with acute abdominal pain. Clinicians must be vigilant to achieve an early therapeutic approach that avoids a fatal outcome.
