Core Tip	Littoral cell angioma (LCA) is a rare splenic tumor. Consequently, there is a paucity of data in the literature on laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) for LCA. We successfully performed LS in 13 patients with LCA. Compared with patients who underwent open splenectomy, patients who underwent LS required shorter operative time and suffered lower blood loss. No patient had tumor recurrence. LS is safe and feasible in patients with LCA.
