摘 要：Splenosis is the autotransplantation of splenic tissue that usually follows traumatic rupture of the spleen. Splenic implants may be seeded within or beyond the peritoneal cavity.1 The most frequent locations of splenosis in the descending order are the serosal surface of the small intestine, the greater omentum, parietal peritoneum, surface of the large intestine, mesentery, undersurface of the diaphragm and the thorax.1,2 However, intrahepatic splenosis is very rare. We recently encountered a patient in whom results of ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) revealed an intrahepatic mass that consisted of ectopic splenic tissue. To our knowledge, this is the fifth report of ectopic splenic tissue in the liver in the English-language literature. We present the imaging findings of the splenic implants in the liver and discuss the diagnosis and its practical significance.
