Résumé
The authors described a case of sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen (SANT) in a 50-year-old woman presented with persistent neutrophilia and unintentional weight loss. An incidental splenic mass was initially found on abdominal ultrasound. It was found to be progressive in size and with high likelihood of central necrosis on further CT of abdomen and pelvis. The patient subsequently underwent an uneventful laparoscopic splenectomy. The splenic specimens were sent for laboratory analysis and the histopathological findings were highly suggestive of SANT. The patient then had routine surgical follow-ups and was eventually discharged with no further clinical concern.
