Although ruptured splenic artery aneurysm in pregnancy is frequently fatal for mother and infant, prompt diagnosis and surgical treatment increase their chances for survival. Normal physiologic and hemodynamic changes of pregnancy may mask early symptoms of hypovolemic shock in pregnant women. The fetus is especially at risk, because maternal compensatory mechanisms activated during hemorrhage shunt blood from uteroplacental circulation to maternal central circulation. Collaboration between perinatal and critical care team members is essential.

Spontaneous rupture of a splenic artery aneurysm with splenic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare condition. Splenic artery aneurysm can be complicated by rupture resulting in hypovolemic shock, which can be fatal if not treat properly. We report a case of a 50-year-old man who presented with sudden onset of left upper quadrant pain and shock. This patient underwent splenectomy with distal pancreatectomy. His pathological diagnosis showed splenic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
