Accessory spleens may be formed during embryonic development when some of the cells from the developing spleen are deposited along the path from the midline, where the spleen forms, over to its final location on the left side of the abdomen by the 9th–11th ribs. The most common locations for accessory spleens are the hilum of the spleen and ...
Polysplenia is a congenital disease manifested by multiple small accessory spleens, [1] rather than a single, full-sized, normal spleen.Polysplenia sometimes occurs alone, but it is often accompanied by other developmental abnormalities.
Polysplenia is a congenital disease manifested by multiple small accessory spleens, [29] rather than a single, full-sized, normal spleen. Polysplenia sometimes occurs alone, but it is often accompanied by other developmental abnormalities such as intestinal malrotation or biliary atresia , or cardiac abnormalities, such as dextrocardia .

Splenosis in the abdominal category may occur in up to 65% of traumatic ruptures of the spleen. [3] Splenosis in the thoracic cavity is rarer, because it requires the simultaneous rupture of the diaphragm. The implantation of spleen tissue under the skin may result from abdominal surgery or gunshot wounds. Splenosis of the brain or liver is ...
Splenogonadal fusion has been classified into two types: continuous, where there remains a connection between the main spleen and gonad; and discontinuous, where ectopic splenic tissue is attached to the gonad, but there is no connection to the orthotopic spleen. Patients can also have an accessory spleen.
Accessory breast – one or more additional breasts [1] Accessory spleen – one or more additional spleens; Cervical rib – an additional rib [2] Diphallia – having two penes/penises; Hyperdontia – additional teeth [3] Pelvic digit – a bony growth in the soft tissue of the pelvic region; Polycephaly – an extra head
The spleen is located and disconnected from its arteries. The ligaments holding the spleen in place, gastrosplenic ligament, splenorenal ligament and splenocolic ligament, are dissected and the organ is removed. In some cases, one or more accessory spleens are discovered and also removed during surgery. The incisions are closed and when ...
