Sclerosing Angiomatoid Nodular Transformation (SANT) of spleen is a benign, rare, vascular disease. We report a case of 13-year old female with left upper abdominal pain, ultrasound revealing a hypoechoic lesion in spleen; laparoscopic splenic resection was performed. The definitive diagnosis of SANT was based on histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry.
