Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - Embolization

Experimental: Embolization - The intervention arm will perform SAE as a central embolization of the splenic artery.

Additional peripheral embolization is left to the discretion of the interventional radiologist.

The study does not interfere with local diagnostic work-up and treatment protocols.

No intervention: Observation - The control arm in this randomized controlled trial will include only NOM patients diagnosed with splenic injuries OIS grade 4 or 5 and suitable for observation alone, and will comprise clinical observation according to local routines and protocols.
