PRESENCE OF AN UNUSUAL FISSURE ON THE DIAPHRAGMATIC SURFACE OF SPLEEN

Spleen is the largest lymphoid organ of the body. Variations in the diaphragmatic surface of spleen are extremely rare which makes it significant. We observed an unusual fissure on the diaphragmatic surface of the spleen during routine dissection. Knowledge of this variation of spleen is important for radiologists, surgeons, clinicians and anatomists.
