[Splenic lobulation and pseudo-cancer of the left kidney].
Discovery of a mass in the spleno-reno-pancreatic region requires complementary investigations to exclude a false diagnosis of renal tumour. While resembling a renal tumour, such masses can actually correspond to splenic lobulation, a cyst of the tail of the pancreas or a splenic entity (accessory spleen or splenosis).
