Risk assessment and prognostic analysis of patients with splenic infarction in emergency department: a multicenter retrospective study
Abstract Splenic infarction is a thromboembolic disease that is frequently missed in acute settings. Previous reviews were rarely presented from a clinical perspective. We aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics, risk factors with diagnostic value, and prognostic factors using large cohort da...
