Summary:

       A case of subcutaneous splenosis in the abdominal wall of a 23-year-old oligophrenic man is reported. Further, the most important features of splenosis in various localisations are provided. The patient presented with a well-demarcated 8x7x5 cm subcutaneous tumour in the left inguinal area closely above the scar after a previous operation for hernia. The lesion simulated clinically a hernia or a tumour due to its large size and location. Additionally, no history could be taken from the patient due to his mental handicap. The diagnosis of splenosis was established histologically.

        Key words: splenosis – skin – subcutis – abdominal wall
