Description
Summary:A 54-year-old female was referred to our clinic for evaluation of an incidentally found splenic mass revealed during a routine abdominal ultrasound examination. The patient denied any abdominal trauma, complaints, or past surgical operations. His medical history was unremarkable. Baseline hematological and biochemical investigations as well as the tumor markers were all within the normal ranges. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a hyperintense splenic lesion, of a total size of 5 cm, which corresponded to the splenic tumor.
