ABSTRACT
Background: Spleen is encapsulated vascular and lymphoid organ. Clinically study of spleen is significant in immunological and haematological disorders. Context and purpose of the study is to study morphological variations of spleen and to compare them with previous studies.
Materials and Methods: Present study carried out with 74 spleens at the Department of Anatomy, Navodaya Medical College, Raichur, Karnatka, India, furthermore we observed for various morphological features.
Results: Out of 74 spleens 11 spleens were triangular, 41 spleens were tetrahedral and 22 spleens were wedge shaped. The mean length was 11cm, the mean breadth was 7.1cm, the mean width was 5.45cm, the mean weight was 141.77gms and the mean volume was 140.45cm3.
Conclusion: 74 normal spleens were studied with shapes, lengths, breadths, widths, weights and volumes were analysed. Present study will help radiologists , physicians and surgeons in diagnosing disorders of spleen
Key words: Volume of spleen, Shape of spleen, Disorders of spleen, Lymphoid organ.
