rbable mesh in an adult woman is described for the first time, This patient
was referred to surgery because of recurrent biliary colic secondary to ch
olecystolithiasis. The wandering spleen had been diagnosed at least 4 years
earlier, but a conservative approach had been adopted for a symptomless pa
tient. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed concomitantly with spleno
pexy, Laparoscopic splenopexy seems a feasible and safe procedure, especial
ly when performed by experienced laparoscopic surgeons.
