We present a rare case of spontaneous intrasplenic varix in a patient with chronic liver disease and portal hypertension. The venous collaterals and presence of portal hypertension was incidentally detected by abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomographic imaging during evaluation of a suspected abdominal trauma following a road traffic accident. There have been a few reports of splenic vein aneurysms in the extrasplenic location. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of intrasplenic varix that developed in an adult with chronic liver disease and portal hypertension which is a rare manifestation of a well-known disease.

We present an interesting case of a large intra-abdominal cystic lesion in a 14-year-old girl who presented with abdominal discomfort and pain. The patient was evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and found to have a large septated cystic lesion arising from the gastrohepatic omentum. She underwent surgery, and the diagnosis of cystic mesothelioma was confirmed in the histopathology. To the best of our knowledge, only a few cases of benign omental mesothelial cysts have been reported.
