Ectopic spleen, malaria, torsion. A case report. Ectopy of the spleen is rare and the diagnosis remains difficult. Its clinical expression is caused by torsion of the vascular pedicle. The diagnosis is made incidentally during exploratory laparotomy. Such a case is presented. We suggest that torsion of the splenic vascular pedicle was caused by rotation of a very large, malaria infested spleen. The only therapy is splenectomy.
异位脾、疟疾、扭转。病例报告。脾异位罕见，诊断仍很困难。其临床表现由血管蒂扭转引起。诊断在剖腹探查术中偶然作出。现报告这样一例。我们认为脾血管蒂扭转是由一个非常大的、感染疟疾的脾脏旋转所致。唯一的治疗方法是脾切除术。
