Abstract

Although primary splenic angiosarcomas are the most common malignant nonhematopoietic tumors of the spleen ,they are extremely rare tumors with very poor prognosis. These tumors are highly aggressive and lethal, present with widespread metastasis or splenic rupture. Definitive diagnosis and treatment is surgical and survival is significantly improved when splenectomy is performed prior to rupture. Diagnosis, radiologic and pathologic findings and treatment of a patient with primary splenic angiosarcoma are presented.

Özet

ÖZET Primer splenik anjiosarkomalar dalağın hematopoetik sistemle ilişkili olmayan en sık malign tümörleri olmasına karşın oldukça nadir görülmekte ve prognozu son derece kötüdür. Bu tümörlerin seyri oldukça agresif ve ölümcül olup yaygın metastazlar veya dalak rüptürü ile karşımıza çıkarlar. Kesin tanı ve tedavi cerrahi ile olur ve rüptür öncesi uygulanan splenektomi yaşam süresini anlamlı şekilde uzatır. Primer splenik anjiosarkomalı bir hastanın tanı, radyolojik patolojik bulgular ve tedavisini sunuyoruz. Anahtar Kelimeler: Anjiosarkoma, Dalak, İmmünhistokimya, Görüntüleme
