Bilobed spleen: an extremely rare imaging finding
1Radiology Department, Benha University, Benha, Egypt.
Abstract:
The spleen has a wide range of congenital anomalies regarding its shape, location, number and size. Unsuspected splenic congenital anomalies are commonly depicted on sonography orCT and sometimes pose a diagnostic dilemma for the radiologists and clinicians. The bilobed spleen is an extremely rarely encountered condition. It is most commonly detected during abdominal surgeries. The bilobed spleen is usually bigger in size than the normal spleen, so it is more predisposed to trauma. In this case report, we have presented a case of the bilobed spleen, which was incidentally suspected during abdominal ultrasonography of an 11-year-old girl complained of recurrent left hypochondrium pain. The bilobed configuration is confirmed with CT examination of the abdomen.
