Although small and relatively protected, an accessory spleen can be the cause of acute intraabdominal symptoms following minimal trauma. Although a splenic fracture or laceration may not be apparent on by CT scan, the scan cannot rule out the possibility. The diagnosis of splenic injury should be entertained in light of appropriate history and physical findings. The case we present and prior similar cases are a useful review of isolated accessory splenic rupture due to blunt trauma.
