Untitled Document

“Splenic nodules frequently develop into small hematomas as a result of marginal zone circulation failure and blood accumulation, leading to hypoxia and necrosis. Life-threatening hemorrhage and hemoperitoneum occur secondary to rupture of the capsule. Ectopic splenic tissue should be considered as a possible cause of hemoperitoneum even in dogs that have had splenectomies.”
