Abstract

Presentation of one case report of unexpected retroperitoneal mass, since it occurred no only in a supernumerary spleen but also because of the right pararenal location. A discussion is presented on the diagnostic difficulties due to such cases being most often asymptomatic, and on the differential diagnosis with splenosis, although the possibility of an embryologic origin was also considered.
