Title Of Article :
Situs Ambiguous with Polysplenia
Abstract :
Situs ambiguous with polysplenia is a situs abnormality characterized by the duplication of left-sided organs and presence of multiple spleens. Situs anomalies are rare conditions with a developmental origin where the inner organs are located other than in their normal localizations. Although seemingly difficult to define and categorize, they can be distinguished from each other by their features. In this article, our purpose is to present radiologic findings of a 25-year-old male, who has diagnosis of situs ambiguous with polysplenia, and to discuss situs abnormalities.
