Wandering Splenomegaly, the Cause of Pelvic Mass : A Case Report

Abstract

A married hill-tribe woman aged 35 years was presented with a left asymptomatic pelvic mass for 7-8 months. The operative findings revealed a large wandering spleen of normal general appearance and the other normal abdomino-pelvic organs. She was treated by splenectomy. No complications were found postoperatively and within 3 months of follow up. Wandering splenomegaly is a rare cause of pelvic mass, but the gynaecologist should be beware of its possibility.
