[Accessory spleens. Scanographic and ultrasonic study].
Accessory spleens can contribute to diagnostic difficulties when evaluating a left upper quadrant mass. Sonography often displays a parenchymal bridge between the accessory element and the organ itself. When such a pattern is absent, contrast enhanced CT is instrumental to permit one a correct diagnosis since it confirms isodensity.
