  • Title: Huge splenic cyst in a newborn: comparison with 10 cases in later childhood and adolescence.
    Author: Griscom NT, Hargreaves HK, Schwartz MZ, Reddish JM, Colodny AH.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1977 Nov; 129(5):889-91. PubMed ID: 410258.
    Abstract:
    Radiographic, sonographic, and histologic findings in a case of a huge splenic cyst in a newborn are presented. The patient had the characteristic findings, particularly the visceral displacement, associated with splenic cysts in a series of 10 older children and adolescents. The occurrence in a newborn of a large splenic cyst histologically similar to those found in older children supports the hypothesis that they are developmental rather than traumatically acquired.
