Abstract EN
The clinical, laboratory, and operative findings of nine cases of spontaneous rupture of the spleen due to P.falciparum malaria are presented.
They all occurred in a period of six months (October 1993 to March 1994).
No previous reports were found in Sudanese literature.
Worldwide, there are a number of case reports mainly due to P.
vivax and in non - immune, acutely infected international travelers.
Very few cases were due toP.
falciparum.
Only 11 cases were reported due to falciparum malaria in a review of literature in the period from 1960 to 1991.
A review of the literature is presented with a discussion of possible pathogenesis and various approaches to management.
