Littoral cell angioma in a splenunculus: a case report

脾脏边缘细胞血管瘤:病例报告

Abstract

Littoral cell angioma (LCA) is a rare primary splenic vascular tumour that arises from the littoral cells that line the red pulp sinuses. It is usually asymptomatic and is discovered incidentally on imaging for other pathologies. Radiologists should be aware of these lesions as they may be mistaken for malignant lesions and lead to unnecessary surgery. We present a case of LCA recurrence within a splenunculus that was discovered incidentally in a 60-year-old patient being investigated for right upper quadrant pain.
