Robotically assisted removal of pelvic splenosis fifty-six years after splenectomy: A case report

'Splenosis' is defined as the autotransplantation of splenic tissue following trauma or surgery, usually in the form of intraperitoneal nodules. The proliferation of imaging techniques has resulted in increased unexpected discoveries of splenosis nodules, and achieving a differential diagnosis can be challenging. Nuclear medicine studies have been playing an increasingly important role in this process, but the clinical significance of asymptomatic nodules remains uncertain.
