# Gastrosplenic Fistula with Thoracic Extension as a Complication of Primary Splenic Lymphoma

## TL;DR

A rare complication of splenic lymphoma, gastrosplenic fistula, can be detected early using CT scans, which also show thoracic involvement.

## Contribution

Highlights the use of CT for early diagnosis and assessment of thoracic extension in gastrosplenic fistula from splenic lymphoma.

## Key findings

- Computed tomography can detect gastrosplenic fistulas early.
- CT also identifies thoracic or diaphragmatic extension, aiding timely management.

## Abstract

Teaching point: Gastrosplenic fistula, a rare complication of splenic lymphoma, can be diagnosed early with computed tomography (CT), which also delineates diaphragmatic or thoracic extension, facilitating timely management and preventing further thoracoabdominal involvement.
