We present a sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) case report in a 60 year-old-woman. SANT is an extremely rare benign disease of the spleen that it is radiologically similar to malignant tumors, and clinically difficult to differentiate from other splenic diseases. Splenectomy is both diagnostic and therapeutic in symptomatic cases. The analysis of the resected spleen is necessary to achieve the final diagnosis of SANT.(AU)
