TORSION OF THE SPLEEN IN THE POLYSPLENIA SYNDROME

ANZ Journal of Surgery, 1984
A case of splenic torsion is presented in an adult with the polysplenia syndrome. The factors predisposing to splenic torsion are discussed. Splenic torsion may mimic acute appendicitis. The recommended treatment is splenectomy. The polysplenia syndrome may often be undiagnosed when cardiac defects are mild or absent.

Polysplenia: A review of 146 cases

Pediatric Cardiology, 1983
The types of cardiac and visceral anomalies of 146 autopsied cases of polysplenia are described. One hundred and five of these cases were from the literature and the other 41 cases were specimens we personally reviewed. The anomalies found support the previous description of this condition as bilateral leftsidedness.

Polysplenia

The British Journal of Radiology, 1975
Polysplenia is a rare syndrome of visceral anomalies. The diagnosis in vivo may be difficult. Recently Vaughan, Hawkins and Elliott (1971) stressed the importance of visceral arteriography for a correct diagnosis. A patient with this condition was seen by us and the angiographic findings are reported hereby.

Polysplenia

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1981
A case of polysplenia associated with total abdominal situs inversus, central localization of the liver, and incomplete development of the inferior vena cava is reported. Various components of the syndrome were easily demonstrated by CT.

ASPLENIA AND POLYSPLENIA SYNDROME

Acta Pathologica Japonica, 1982
This report described the morphological characteristics of seven cases of asplenia syndrome and three of polysplenia syndrome. Each syndrome has been characterized by a tendency for symmetric development of normally asymmetric organs, with varying degrees of cardiovascular anomalies.

Diagnosis of Polysplenia Syndrome

Radiology, 1971
Three cases of polysplenia were diagnosed by visceral arteriography. Each patient had a common celiacomesenteric artery. The origin of supply to the dislocated splenic lobules was variable. Such lobules were readily demonstrated at various sites along the greater curvature of the stomach.

Asplenia and Polysplenia

Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 1991
Abdominal sonograms on seven patients with asplenia syndrome and six patients with polysplenia syndrome were retrospectively reviewed. All seven patients with asplenia had a horizontal symmetric configuration of the liver, and three patients had the cardiac apex opposite the stomach.

Scintigraphic Diagnosis of Polysplenia in the Adult

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1999
The authors describe an adult patient with low index of suspicion for polysplenia. The diagnostic contribution of various investigative modalities is considered, and the key role of scintigraphy is specifically highlighted.CT scan findings revealed multiple abdominal and retroperitoneal masses. Needle biopsy of a flank mass was nonspecific.

Short Pancreas in Polysplenia Syndrome

Acta Radiologica, 1991
Two cases with the polysplenia syndrome also had a short pancreas. To the best of our knowledge the radiologic characteristics of this anatomic anomaly have not yet been reported. Both cases were asymptomatic with regard to their anomaly-complex. The radiologic findings of the short “pancreas” are similar to the only pathologic description of this ...

[Polysplenia. Description of a case].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia, 1977
A clinical and hemodynamic study of a case of polysplenia, with typical left bilateral symmetry, anomalies of systemic venous drainage and defect of the endocardial cushions. A brief revision of the literature is given and the embriological and clinical concept of the left bilateral symmetry is discussed.
