A 14-year-old boy presented to our Emergency Department complaining of
fever, and abdominal pain. An abdominal computed tomography showed a
large abscess of the spleen. Percutaneous aspiration of the lesion was
performed. Splenectomy was performed 38 days after percutaneous
aspiration because of the abscess's considerable size.17 Jan 2021Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 19 Jan 2021Assigned to Editor
