title: Torsion of the spleen with incomplete infarction: case report.
abstract: Torsion and infarction of a "wandering spleen" is a rare disease which is often confused with other acute abdominal crises. A correct preoperative diagnosis, when made, has usually been determined by arteriographic studies. A child is described in whom changes in the TcSC scan made a correct diagnosis possible by non-invasive methods.
