Splenosis masquerading as small bowel neoplasm.

M Metzler, J Long, A Llorens.   

Abstract

Incidental discovery of a mass during laparoscopic surgery resulted in exploratory laparotomy for a young woman. The mass' uncharacteristic appearance belied its true identity as displaced splenic tissue. The authors suggest ways to identify splenosis without resorting to further surgery.
