JOURNAL ARTICLE
[Splenic angiosarcoma: a case report with synchronous hepatic metastases].
Chirurgie; Mémoires de L'Académie de Chirurgie 1999 November
A 49 years old man in good physical condition suffering from abdominal pain in the right hypochondrium was hospitalized and CT scan revealed an hemoperitoneum, an enlargement of the liver and a rupture of an heterogeneous spleen. The patient was operated on and spleen removed. Pathological examination of the spleen concluded to a splenic cavernous hemangioma. In the postoperative course, an increase of liver nodules occurred within two weeks. A localized splenic angiosarcoma was recognized by reexamination of the specimen. The patient treated by chemotherapy was still alive after 5 months. Prognosis of splenic angiosarcoma is very poor; there is no curative treatment.
