Malignant mesenchymal tumors of the spleen are rare.
The vast majority of primary sarcomas of the spleen are
of vascular origin. Hemangioendothelioma, a vascular tumor,
is characterized by mild cellular atypia, low mitotic
rate and intermediate appearance between hemangioma
and conventional angiosarcoma histopathologically. We
report herein a case of multicentric splenic hemangioendothelioma
presenting together with symptomatic cholecystolithiasis,
mild anemia and indirect hyperbilirubinemia,
which were recovered after cholecystectomy and splenectomy.
