A neglected organ: Spleen

Öz

The spleen is an important organ of reticuloendothelial system, but it is a less well-known organ in terms of its pathologies. Therefore, the spleen is considered a 'forgotten or neglected organ' by radiologists and clinicians. Spleen pathologies show a wide spectrum ranging from congenital anomalies to malignant lesions. Radiological imaging methods play an important role in detecting these pathologies. In this pictorial article, we aimed to present common and rare lesions related to the spleen in the light of imaging findings (including US, CT, and MRI). We classified the lesions affecting the spleen in six main categories: (a) Normal variants, (b) congenital diseases, (c) trauma, (d) infectious / inflammatory diseases, (e) vascular and hematological disorders, (f) benign and malignant tumors, and (g) other diseases. All cases confirmed by surgical resection, or radiological follow-up study.
