  • Title: Congenital spleen thinning mimicking a space-occupying lesion.
    Author: McCullough RW, Moonan D, Schatz S, Gandsman E.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1986 Apr; 11(4):262-3. PubMed ID: 3956042.
    Abstract:
    By splenic imaging, a large focal defect was demonstrated in a symptomatic South American immigrant with simultaneous parasitic infestation of strongyloidiasis and entamebiasis. The CT scan also was thought to be abnormal. Pathologic findings reported a variation in splenic configuration. Unusual splenic configuration should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abnormal scans.
