Almost-perfect!: The spleen is located in the far left, upper abdomen just under the diaphragm; the appendix is usually in the right, lower abdomen, although it's tip may extend down into the pelvis or even up towards the liver edge; the liver is the largest organ in the body and consists of a large right lobe and smaller left lobe; the left lobe crosses the midline and is actually on the left side, as well.
