Abstract
A 75-year-old man had multiple findings that indicated thromboembolic disease. A radiocolloid study showed splenic defects. The remainder of the spleen was hot on radiogallium imaging. The patient had Trousseau''s syndrome (tumor-associated thromboembolism) due to carcinoma of the pancreas. The splenic vein was obstructed. Vascular compromise should be considered in the differential diagnosis of the radiogallium hot spleen.
