    Abstract:
    During a routine clinical examination of a 7-year-old girl and a 17-year-old man a large tumor was discovered in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen. Large splenic cyst were found in the spleen at splenectomy. The traumatic etiology of the cysts can be assumed on the basis of histologic results, as well as of a significant history of previous trauma. The etiology, differential diagnosis, therapy, and classification of splenic cysts are discussed.
