Abstract
The article provides an overview of domestic and foreign interdisciplinary studies of post-traumatic splenosis. Furthermore, we focused on the development of splenosis of various localization and the possibility of radiation imaging diagnostics. The authors analyzed a differential diagnosis with a primary or secondary tumour process and reviewed patient management tactics as well as potential complications. The study described a case of splenosis 14 years after splenectomy due to spleen rupture with blunt abdominal trauma at the age of 7. A comprehensive examination of the patient with the methods of radiation imaging and laboratory diagnostics is presented. In the study, the authors identified 4 lesions of splenosis. A new lesion in the pelvis emerged after 8 years. The ultrasonic characteristics of the identified lesions are described. The article discusses the therapy strategy for a patient who is planning a pregnancy.
