Splenic infarction: I didn't understand what u mean by ff . The cause of splenic infarction doesn't have to be always bad ones. Ofcourse there are possibilities of malignancy but there are other causes like rhythm problems with heart or atherosclerosis of blood vessels. We have to try and find out the cause, follow with your doc.
