Abstract
Wandering spleen (W.S) seems tu result from an abnormal development or the ligamentous attachments of this organ. The age of apparition is between 3 months and eight years. We report the youngest case of the literature of torsion of wandering spleen at two days of birth where the clinical examination and the abdominal sonography make the diagnosis.
