[Ectopic spleen in pelvis minor--a case report].
A case of ectopic spleen diagnosed as a left adnexal tumor in a 19 year old female was presented. Considering the rareness and lack of typical symptoms, diagnosis of this pathology still is very difficult, and establish most often intraoperatively. In every case of ascertainment irregular mass in minor pelvis one should differentiate it among: colonic diverticulosis, wandering kidney, coproliths, colon and mesentery tumors and ectopic spleen. We consider that ultrasonography plays the special role in these cases. In every case of stating the pathologic structure in minor pelvis it seems advisable not to content only with estimation of genital organs, but also locate such as: kidneys, liver, spleen. Such a procedure allows to state preoperative diagnosis more precisely.
