Abstract:
A case of splenic herniation complicated by spurious hypertension is described. A misleading provisional diagnosis was made despite computerised tomography (CT Scan). Diaphragmatic herniation is discussed and the use of computerised tomography in the diagnosis of masses arising from the posterior aspect of the diaphragm is emphasized.
