The first case of a littoral spleen-preserving resection: a case report

Littoral cell angiomas are uncommon primary splenic haemangiomas with rare malignant potential. We report a case of a 76-year-old male with an incidental solitary littoral cell angioma found within an accessory spleen. We provide an overview of the literature of littoral cell angiomas and highlight...

description Littoral cell angiomas are uncommon primary splenic haemangiomas with rare malignant potential. We report a case of a 76-year-old male with an incidental solitary littoral cell angioma found within an accessory spleen. We provide an overview of the literature of littoral cell angiomas and highlight the diagnostic challenge and treatment of this important differential for general surgeons caring for patients with splenic masses. This is the first case to describe primary resection of a littoral cell angioma with splenic preservation.
