Projection of the spleen onto the trunk
The spleen lies in the left upper abdomen and is not palpable in a healthy, normal condition. Since it has not grown together with the diaphragm, like the liver, its position is strongly dependent on breathing. It lies under the diaphragm and is therefore directly affected by the movements of the diaphragm.
