Abstract

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) is a relatively new, benign neoplasm arising within the red pulp of the spleen. The lesion is often identified incidentally on imaging, and the diagnosis is confirmed on pathologic assessment of the resected spleen. Although there have been several reports of SANT in the adult population, data on this lesion in the pediatric population are exceedingly rare. We present a case of SANT in an adolescent male with chronic abdominal pain and discuss the management issues that arise in treating this condition in the pediatric population.
