摘要
Introduction: Being a rare benign vascular tumor of the spleen, Littoral cell angioma involves multiple focal nodules in the spleen and splenectomy is used for both definitive diagnosis and treatment.Patients and methods: A 30-year-old male patient presented to our clinic with the complaints of intermittent abdominal pain and fever. In physical examination, splenomegaly was found and he was further evaluated with ultrasonography, tomography and magnetic resonance imaging that have revealed multiple solid mass lesions of various sizes in his spleen. The patient was administered open splenectomy and recovered uneventful.Results: After histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses of the splenectomy material, he was diagnosed with Littoral cell angioma.Conclusions: For a timely diagnosis, Littoral cell angioma should be considered among the initial diagnoses in patients who were found to have splenomegaly in their physical examination and multiple masses in the spleen in radiological tests.
