Biliary atresia and the polysplenia syndrome
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1991There is a widely held but unsubstantiated belief that in infants with biliary atresia and coexisting polysplenia syndrome, the Kasai operation fails. An equally poor prognosis has been forecast for patients with this complex treated by liver transplantation.

TORSION OF THE SPLEEN IN THE POLYSPLENIA SYNDROME
ANZ Journal of Surgery, 1984A 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, 1983The 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 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.

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.

American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1985
AbstractThe pathogenesis of asplenia and polysplenia in humans is unknown. The conditions have been regarded as duplication of sidedness or abnormalities of embryonic curvature. The resemblance of the abnormalities in an autosomal recessive mutation (iv) in mice to those in humans with asplenia or polysplenia suggest the possibility of a genetic basis ...

ASPLENIA AND POLYSPLENIA SYNDROME
Acta Pathologica Japonica, 1982This 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, 1971Three 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.

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, 1999The 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.
