Introducción
La esplenosis es una entidad observada ocasionalmente y probablemente infradiagnosticada.
Material y métodosSe ha realizado un análisis retrospectivo de 303 esplectomías de indicación variada: 112 traumáticas, 134 por procesos hematológicos, 43 por cirugía resectiva, nueve por parasitosis y/o infecciones y nueve por otras causas.
ResultadosSe determinó la existencia de tejido esplénico funcional en 14 ocasiones. En 9 casos fue confirmada la existencia de tejido esplénico implantado mediante laparotomía debido a los síntomas producidos.
ConclusionesLa esplenosis es una entidad a considerar en el seguimiento a largo plazo de pacientes esplenectomizados y sintomáticos.

Introduction
Splenosis is an infrequently observed clinical entity and is probably under-diagnosed.
Patients and methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of 307 splenectomies performed for various indications: traumatic in 112 patients, hematological processes in 134, surgical resection in 43, parasitosis and/or infections in 9 and other causes in 9.
ResultsFunctional splenic tissue was found in 14 patients. In 9, splenic tissue implanted by laparotomy was confirmed by the symptoms produced.
ConclusionsSplenosis should be considered in the longterm follow-up of symptomatic splenectomized patients.
