Splenic Sclerosing Angiomatoid Nodular Transformation in an 8-Year-Old Child

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) of the spleen is extremely rare in pediatric patients. Here, we report the case of an 8-year-old boy with iron-deficiency anemia and a solitary splenic mass detected using US, CT, and MRI. The patient underwent partial splenectomy, and the fina...

description Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) of the spleen is extremely rare in pediatric patients. Here, we report the case of an 8-year-old boy with iron-deficiency anemia and a solitary splenic mass detected using US, CT, and MRI. The patient underwent partial splenectomy, and the final diagnosis was SANT. Herein, we discuss the radiological features of splenic SANT through a review of reported cases and the differential diagnosis of other primary splenic tumors.
