| Core Tip |
Splenic hamartoma (SH) is a rare, benign vascular proliferation that is found incidentally and often misdiagnosed. We present a case with an incidentally discovered asymptomatic splenic space-occupying lesion, which is misdiagnosed as a splenic aneurysm. Laparoscopic splenectomy was performed and postoperative pathology revealed the presence of SH. The findings of this case study emphasize that imaging studies are insufficient for the differential diagnosis of SH from other diseases, and laparoscopic splenectomy is a less invasive procedure and useful for the diagnostic purpose as well. |
