Popis: In imaging studies, some developmental anomalies such as perisplenic accessory spleen are easily recognizable due to their high incidence. However, other, less common anomalies such as intrapancreatic accessory spleen, splenopancreatic fusion, splenogonadal fusion, heterotaxy, and wandering spleen, as well as acquired conditions such as splenosis, can pose diagnostic difficulties. This aim of this review is to show the imaging diagnosis and differential diagnoses of these uncommon splenic anomalies.
