Abstract
We present a 26-year-old male patient with Gaucher
disease who presented with epigastric pain and a palpable
mass in the left abdomen. Ultrasound, abdominal computed
tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging
showed massive splenomegaly with multiple splenic nodules
up to 7 cm in diameter. Splenic nodules should be
included in the differential diagnosis of splenic masses.
Follow-up is necessary because of the increased incidence
of hematologic malignancies in Gaucher disease.
Key words: Gaucher disease—Spleen in Gaucher disease—
Splenic nodules—Computed tomography—Magnetic
resonance imaging.
