title: Intraperitoneal splenosis: diagnosis by ultrasound and computed tomography.
abstract: Splenosis is an unusual complication of abdominal trauma. We report a case of splenosis identified on ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT). Usually it is a latent disease and an incidental finding, but it may be diagnosed by US and CT.
