• TITLE: Ectopic Spleen Mimicking Kidney Activity Post-Nephrectomy

  AUTHORS: Hong Yun Ma, Raphaella Da Silva, Muhammad Shah, Leonard M. Freeman

  ABSTRACT: Ectopic spleen may simulate kidney activity on renal scintigraphic imaging. Accurate diagnosis requires correlation with the patient’s history and anatomic imaging studies. We report a case where the spleen migrated to the left renal fossa and mimicked the left kidney after a left nephrectomy.
