  • Title: A case of microgastria in association with splenic-gonadal fusion.
    Author: Mandell GA, Heyman S, Alavi A, Ziegler MM.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1983; 13(2):95-8. PubMed ID: 6856383.
    Abstract:
    Microgastria is a rare congenital anomaly usually associated with asplenia. In this 2 1/2-year-old presenting with left hydrocele and inguinal hernia multiple accessory spleens were found in the inguinal-scrotal region compatible with splenic-gonadal fusion. 99mTc-sulfur colloid scanning is helpful in microgastria searching for the presence of splenic tissue and in splenic-gonadal fusion for the location of accessory heterotopic spleens.
