The bend in the colon between the transverse and descending parts. The other flexure (between ascending and transverse) is the hepatic flexure.
It would be near the descending colon in the left upper quadrant of humans.
Splenic varices are dilated blood vessels that develop in the spleen due to increased pressure in the portal vein system. They can occur in conditions such as portal hypertension, often as a result of liver disease. Splenic varices can lead to complications like bleeding if they rupture.
Splenic granulomas are small nodules that form in the spleen in response to inflammation or infection. They are made up of a cluster of immune cells called macrophages that form a protective barrier around the foreign substance. Splenic granulomas can be found in a variety of conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers.
The large intestine has curves called the hepatic flexure (at the junction of the ascending and transverse colon) and the splenic flexure (at the junction of the transverse and descending colon).
The splenic left colic flexure lies between the descending colon and the transverse colon. It is located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen and serves as a bend where the colon transitions from the transverse to the descending section.
This depends on the type and reason for the colostomy. Most colostomies can be reversed.
44227 laparoscopic, open is 44626. Do not forget to code mobilization of splenic flexture 44139....it is done 90% of the time for this surgery!
Splenic means related to the spleen.
Also called the portal splenic confluence. This is the area where the splenic vein meets the superior mesenteric vein. Together, posterior to the neck of the pancreas, these veins form the portal vein.
Splenic embolization. involves plugging or blocking the splenic artery to shrink the size of the spleen. The substances that are injected during this procedure include polyvinyl alcohol foam, polystyrene, and silicone.

Splenic trauma is physical injury to the spleen, the lymphatic organ located in the upper left side of the abdomen just under the rib cage.
