Splenic Sequestration Induced by Parvovirus B19: A Case Report.

Splenic sequestration crisis is a life-threatening complication of sickle cell disease (SCD), characterized by a sudden and huge accumulation of blood in the spleen, leading to rapid enlargement and may lead to organ failure. This case report discusses an unusual case of a splenic sequestration crisis in an adult with SCD. The patient's age, Parvovirus B19 infection, and concurrent retrocardiac pneumonia are all things that differentiate this case from our usual presentation. We will be discussing the clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and management.
