The purpose of this report was to present the first case of dwarfism associated with wandering splenomegaly. A 14-year-old boy presented a wandering splenomegaly and torsion of the splenic pedicle associated with a retarded growth and sexual underdevelopment characterized by lack of sexual maturity and absence of secondary sexual physical appearance. The patient was submitted to detorsion of the spleen, and splenopexy. After the surgery, the patient grew up, and his sexual characteristics developed to normal. The size of the spleen reduced from the 22\u2009\u00d7\u200916\u2009\u00d7\u200913\u00a0cm to 14\u2009\u00d7\u200912\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u00a0cm after the surgical procedure. This is the first report of dwarfism associated with wandering splenomegaly, which was successfully treated without partial or total splenectomy. After releasing the venous blood flow, the spleen reduced its dimension and the patient grew up to the expected family size.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab558","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,4]],"date-time":"2022-01-04T20:09:09Z","timestamp":1641326949000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Dwarfism
