Splenic cysts are usually asymptomatic when they are small, but when they are large they may cause abdominal pain or gastrointestinal discomfort when they compress the organ, and if they rupture they may cause peritonitis or abdominal pain.
Splenic cysts usually have no obvious clinical symptoms when they are small, but they can usually be detected by ultrasound. If the splenic cyst is large, it will exert pressure on the surrounding tissues, and the patient may experience nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, pain, abdominal distension, dyspepsia, intestinal obstruction and other symptoms, which are often thought to be digestive system disorders when not examined.
If not treated in time, when the splenic cyst ruptures or bleeds and becomes infected, the patient may experience abdominal pain, peritonitis, anaphylactic shock, splenic rupture, splenic hemorrhage, and other symptoms, which may even be life-threatening in severe cases.
If symptoms of splenic cyst are suspected or diagnosed, patients should go to the hospital as soon as possible and receive targeted treatment without delay, so as not to delay or aggravate the condition, and the more serious the disease is, the more detrimental it is to the recovery of the body.
