Abstract

Splenogonadal fusion is rare congenital malformation that is characterized by the fusion of spleen and gonadal tissues in intrauterin period. The anomaly was first mentioned by Boestrom in 1883. lt manifests itself as mass consisting of splenic and testicular or ovarian tissue in the fifth to eight weeks of embriyologic development. It is more common in males and in the left side. It is seemed as scrotal mass and is rarely diagnosed pre—operatively. In this kind of cases, invasive processes and unnecessary orchiectomy are prevented by the preoperative diagnosis. Unless the splenogonadal fusion has symptoms, surgery is unnecessary. So in differential diagnosis of the left side scrotal masses, the anomaly especially has to be remembered. Because of its rarity, we presented thirty three years old male patient's case, diagnosed splenogonadal fusion, which has undergone the surgery for suspicious malignancy.

Özet

Splenogonadal füzyon, dalak ve gonadal yapıların intrauterin dönemde füzyonu ile karekterize nadir görülen konjenital bir anomalidir. ilk kez 1883 yılında Boestrom tarafından tarif edilmiştir. Embriyolojik gelişimin 5--8. haftalarında dalak ve gonadal dokunun birleşmesi ile ortaya çıkar. Bu anomali sıklıkla erkeklerde gözlenir ve hemen daima sol taraftadır. Çoğunlukla skrotal kitle şeklinde kendini gösterir ve nadiren ameliyat öncesi teşhis konulur. Bu tip olgularda ameliyat öncesi teşhis ile invaziv işlemler ve gereksiz orşiektomi Önlenebilir. Splenogonadal füzyon semptom vermediği sürece sağaltım gerekmediğinden özellikle sol taraf skrotal kitlelerin ayırıcı tanısında göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Sol skrotal kitle ile başvuran, malignite düşünülerek yapılan orşiektomi sonrasında splenogonadal füzyon tanısı konan 33 yaşındaki erkek hasta olgusu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
