Abstract

Cystic lesions of the spleen are rarely seen in childhood. The majority of the cases are classified as pseudocysts which are reputedly post-travmatic. A nine-year-old girl was admitted with the complaint of abdominal swelling. Physical examination revealed only splenomegaly. Abdominal computed tomography demonstrated a hypodense cystic lesion in the spleen and splenectomy was performed.
