Abstract:
Isolated splenic metastases are uncommon. We report CT and MRI features of an isolated, large, calcified splenic metastasis from a primary adenocarcinoma of the stomach. Presence of a calcified splenic mass with a known primary malignancy of mucinous nature should suggest the diagnosis of splenic metastasis even if it occurs in isolation.
