Thoracic splenosis presenting with hemoptysis.

Thoracic splenosis (post-traumatic autotransplantation of splenic tissue) is rare and generally asymptomatic. We report a patient with thoracic splenosis presenting with repeated hemoptysis. The blood supply of the hypervascular splenic transplants originated from a bronchial and an intercostal artery. Hemoptysis improved after surgical exeresis of splenosis. Recognizing splenosis presenting with hemoptysis is important, since percutaneous embolotherapy could be hazardous because of the risk of ectopic splenic tissue infarction.

Massive splenomegaly with multiple defects in a chronic myelogenous leukemia demonstrated by 99mTc-sulfur colloid scintigraphy.

A 99mTc-sulfur colloid liver-spleen scintigram of a 78-year-old woman with a painful, large mass in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen revealed massive splenomegaly with multiple areas of absent radioactivity. Splenectomy was performed and the removed spleen, weighting 2,010 g, was confirmed to contain acute and old infarcts with leukemic cell and megakaryocyte infiltration.
