Abstract [eng] The post-traumatic pseudocyst is a very rare complication of the spleen rupture after blunt abdominal trauma. It is known to occur only to 1% of patients who had undergone such blunt abdominal trauma. The symptoms of the disease are reported to develop after a long post-traumatic period, thus the etiology of the pseudocyst of the spleen is hard to reveal. The aim of this paper is to present a case of the post-traumatic pseudocyst of the spleen and to discuss the strategy of the surgical management.
