Özet
A 54-year-old patient presented to our hospital with the symptoms of stomach ache, weakness, loss of appetite and weight loss. The patient had mild abdominal sensitivity during physical examination; the results of other systemic examinations were normal. Laboratory findings showed anemia. Since the patient's symptoms were accompanied by weight loss, abdominal CT examination was performed to rule out any malignancies. The abdominal CT examination showed a picture consistent with partial situs inversus. The liver was located on the left, the spleen on the right and the heart was in its normal position. The cecum was observed in the lower left quadrant. Multiple spleens located in the upper right quadrant were observed (Fig. 1). Pancreas was ectopically located in the upper left quadrant and surrounded the second part of the duodenum. A diverticular formation was detected in the second part of the duodenum.
