  • Title: Primary angiosarcoma of the spleen: a diagnosis to consider.
    Author: Jain AB, Lee MJ, Bevan PG, Chan SY.
    Journal: Eur J Surg Oncol; 1988 Aug; 14(4):341-3. PubMed ID: 3410059.
    Abstract:
    We discuss a case of angiosarcoma of the spleen. Splenomegaly was discovered on a routine examination. At a later date it increased further in size and became painful. Peripheral smear and radio-isotope scannings suggested non-functioning spleen with haemorrhage within the tumour. Characteristic features of microangiopathic haemolysis, suggested in previous reports, was not found in our case.
