Because of the abundant blood supply, splenic trauma may cause serious internal bleeding. Most injuries to the spleen in children heal spontaneously. Severe trauma can cause the spleen or its blood vessels to rupture or fragment. Splenic trauma is more common in children than in adults.
Blood transfusions are often needed to treat a spleen injury, and sometimes surgery to remove or repair the spleen is done. Because of the spleenâs position in the upper left side of the abdomen, a severe blow to the stomach area can damage the spleen, tearing its covering, the tissue inside, or both. The tears range from small ones that stop bleeding spontaneously to very large ones that cause potentially fatal hemorrhage. Sometimes a collection of blood (hematoma) forms under the covering of the spleen or deep within it.
