Core Tip |
We demonstrated a rare case of Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) and its association with torsion of wandering spleen. ARS is an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by ocular developmental disorders. This 25-year-old female presented with a lower abdominal pain of increasing severity, and she was diagnosed splenic torsion by diagnostic computed tomography. An emergent laparoscopic exploration was performed, and an ischemic spleen without its normal ligamentous attachments was noted. The spleen did not regain its normal vascularity after detorsion; thus, we performed the laparoscopic total splenectomy. This case demonstrates a rare association of wandering spleen and ARS. |
