Abstract

This study is a case report, who has an accessory spleen. The accessory spleen, which was 3.7 x 3.3 x 1.4 cm, was near the upper pole of the normal spleen in left hypochondriacal region. An artery originating directly from the splenik artery and 1.1mm in diameter, supplied the accessory spleen, whose venous drenaje was carried out by a vein, 1.2 mm in diameter. Accessory spleen is observed in up to 10% of the population. Although often placed at the splenic hilus and pancreatic tail, it can be seen at any place including thoracic cavity. Because gross and microscopic features are similar to the splenic tissue, diseases affecting the spleen may also affect the accessory spleen. We present this case to stress its clinical importance.

Özet

Bu çalışma, aksesuar dalağa sahip bir vak'a raporudur. 3.7 x 3.3 x 1.4 cm boyutlarındaki aksesuar dalak, sol hipokondriyak bölgede ve dalağın üst kutbuna yakın bulunuyordu. Beslenmesi direkt olarak splenik arterden gelen ve 1.1 mm çapındaki bir arterden sağlanıyordu. Venöz drenajı ise 1.2 mm çapındaki tek bir ven ile sağlanıyordu. Aksesuar dalak, populasyon da %10'un üzerinde görülür. Sıklıkla dalak hilumunda ve pankreas kuyruğuna yakın olarak bulunsa da toraks dahil birçok yerde görülebilir. Gros ve mikroskopik özellikleri dalak dokusuyla aynı olduğu için, dalağı tutan hastalıklar aynı şekilde aksesuar dalağı da tutabilir. Aksesuar dalağın klinik öneminden dolayı, bu olguyu sunmayı uygun bulduk.
