| Abstract: | We report a case of littoral cell angioma (LCA) of the spleen, a recently described splenic pathology, which imaging characteristics
and pathologic morphology have been discussed only by a few authors. The imaging findings in unenhanced and contrast-enhanced
MRI and CT as well as histologic specimen are presented. Diagnosis was made after elective splenectomy. Differential diagnosis
of splenic tumors as well as the imaging findings in this particular case are discussed.
