Baltimore County General Hospital.

The ultrasound modality, the Scintiscan with technetium, and the CAT scan may make the diagnosis and may pinpoint the location of the splenic cyst. Physical examination may reveal no abnormalities. In some cases a mass may be palpable in the LUQ. Bulging of the left lower intercostal spaces has been reported. The diaphragm may exhibit impaired motion and elevation. Percussion and auscultation of the chest may reveal secondary pulmonary findings.
