SUMMARYA case of torsion of the wandering spleen with splenic infarction is reported. The medical imaging studies performed with typical findings are described. Case reports have been reviewed. Although rare, torsion of the spleen remains an important differential diagnosis in patients presenting with acute abdominal pain. Early intervention is necessary to reduce the risk of splenic infarction and other complications, and an increased awareness of the condition together with the use of appropriate medical imaging can lead to the correct diagnosis more readily.
