Functional asplenia is described in the case report of an 80-year-old woman who was admitted with Sezary syndrome. The spleen could not be visualized by a Tc-99m tin colloid (SnC) liver and spleen scan, but was visualized by a Tc-99m sulfur colloid (SC) scan, suggesting a different mechanism in accumulation of SnC and SC in the spleen. In-111 oxine labeled Sezary cells could be found in the spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes.
