Splenosis is the spread of splenic tissue outside the spleen. This case highlights intrahepatic splenosis diagnosed non-invasively using advanced imaging techniques.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Nuclear Medicine
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Splenosis is rare, involving heterotopic autotransplantation of splenic tissue.
  • Intrahepatic splenosis cases are infrequently reported in medical literature.
  • Radiologic characteristics of intrahepatic splenosis require further elucidation.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with suspected intrahepatic splenosis.
  • Diagnosis was achieved through a combination of imaging modalities.
  • Ultrasound, CT, MRI, and scintigraphy were utilized for assessment.

Findings:

  • The patient exhibited classic signs of intrahepatic splenosis on imaging.
  • The diagnosis was confirmed without the need for surgical intervention.
  • This represents a unique case of non-invasive diagnosis.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of intrahepatic splenosis presentation.
  • It underscores the efficacy of multimodal imaging in diagnosing rare conditions.
  • Highlights the potential for non-invasive diagnosis of splenosis.
