Background:

Polysplenia is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by multiple spleens.
Associated visceral anomalies are common in polysplenia syndrome.
In vivo diagnosis of polysplenia can be challenging.

Observation:

A patient presenting with polysplenia syndrome was evaluated.
The diagnostic difficulties associated with polysplenia were noted.

Findings:

Visceral arteriography was performed on the patient.
Angiographic findings specific to polysplenia were observed and are reported.

Implications:

This case highlights the utility of visceral arteriography in diagnosing polysplenia.
Accurate diagnosis is essential for appropriate management of associated visceral anomalies.
Further emphasizes the importance of advanced imaging in rare congenital conditions.
