SPLENIC INJURY DUE TO INDIRECT TORSION
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1977A patient with subcapsular rupture of the spleen in association with indirect torsion trauma is reported. The spleen was surrounded by bands and adherent organs. The injury was considered to have been caused by a stretched band. In patients with hemoperitoneum, celiac angiography is advocated for diagnosis when immediate surgery is not indicated.

Splenic torsion in the presence of renal agenesis
Pediatric Surgery International, 1998A 14-year-old male with left renal agenesis presented with a history of intermittent abdominal pain for over 1 year. At laparotomy, the cause was found to be splenic torsion. The case is presented with a literature review. A theory of the cause is also presented based on the regional anatomy and embryology.

The British Journal of Radiology, 1977
In a recent article on splenic torsion, Dublin and Rosenquist (1976), demonstrate the feasibility of making a correct pre-operative diagnosis. Radiologically, the patient had a plain film of the abdomen, excretory urography, ultrasound liver spleen scan, an upper GI series, and a coeliac arteriogram.

Diagnosis of splenic torsion : a combined radiographic approach
The British Journal of Radiology, 1976Torsion of the spleen about its pedicle is a rare condition in North America and Europe, comprising only 0.2% of splenectomies performed at the Mayo Clinic between 1904 and 1945 (Pugh, 1946). In underdeveloped nations the rate of occurrence is probably slightly higher due to the increased presence of splenomegaly secondary to malnutrition and malaria ...

Splenic torsion and accessory spleen: A scintigraphic demonstration
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1975Torsion of the spleen with subsequent splenic infarction is a rare condition. Of 1413 splenectomies performed on patients under the age of 16 yr, only 4 were performed for management of torsion of the spleen. Accessory spleen is a rather frequent finding.
