Abstract

A lady of age 55 years came with upper abdominal pain for ultrasound examination. No abnormality was found except absence of gallbladder which was removed surgically 3 years before and small bright dots scattered all over the spleen (Figure 1). As there was no evidence of infection we suspected hemosiderosis of the spleen as the diagnosis.
