ABSTRACT
A systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patient in her mid-30s presented with spontaneous splenic haematoma and rupture. She rapidly deteriorated despite packed red cells and fresh frozen plasma transfusions. She underwent emergent ultraselective angioembolisation of the splenic artery and got stabilised. Spontaneous or atraumatic splenic rupture is rare in SLE and splenic artery embolisation may be life-saving.
