Splenosis is a pathology resulting from a rupture of the spleen due to a trauma or a surgery. We report the case of a patient presenting with a splenosis, initially diagnosed as endometriosis-related pelvic nodules, the most frequent cause of pelvic nodules in women. We will describe the imaging strategy that led to the final diagnosis of splenosis.
