title: [Isolated splenic torsion in dogs with special emphasis on B-mode and color doppler sonography].
abstract: The clinical, radiologic, sonographic and histopathologic findings of isolated splenic torsion in the dog are described with the help of eight case reports. Special emphasis is placed on the significance of B-Mode and Color Doppler Imaging which facilitated diagnosis in all of these cases. Possible causes of splenic torsion and the different diagnostic measures are discussed.
