    Author: De Vriese L, De Coster M, Noyez D.
    Journal: Acta Chir Belg; 1989; 89(1):46-8. PubMed ID: 2655361.
    Abstract:
    Angiosarcomatous tumours of the spleen are rather rare. We report such a tumor in a 46 year old male. The pathology is described as well as a review of the literature. The pathogenesis is unknown, the symptomatology indistinct but spontaneous rupture is a rare event. Definite diagnosis is only possible with exploratory laparotomy and splenectomy. The prognosis is poor.
