Wandering spleen in a postpartum female: A case report

Wandering spleen (WS) is a rare condition that occurs when the spleen is not in its normal anatomical location, but in the abdominal or pelvic cavity. The mechanism of this condition may be due to dysfunction of ligaments that fixate the spleen in its position. Female hormonal alterations during pregnancy and other unknown causes in children may also play role in an ectopic spleen.
