Splenic rupture, in association with mononucleosis, can be lethal. Most reported cases of splenic rupture in patients with mononucleosis have not responded to conservative splenic preserving measures and have resulted in splenectomy. We report a case of traumatic splenic disruption in a patient with mononucleosis in whom conservative management was successful. We recommend consideration of splenic preservation measures in patients with mononucleosis and splenic disruption, if the patient is stable and meets other criteria of conservative management.
