Ali Devrim Karaosmanoglu1, Mehmet Ruhi Onur2, Musturay Karcaaltıncaba1.   

Abstract

Abnormal location of the spleen, which is called wandering spleen, results from laxity or absence of the splenic pedicle. In the presence of an elongated splenic pedicle, torsion of the spleen or neighboring organs may occur, which results in acute or chronic abdominal pain. In this case report, we present imaging findings of a wandering spleen that manifested with volvulus of the pancreas.
