title: Case report of malignant splenic tumor.
abstract: Primary angiosarcoma and malignant lymphoma of the spleen are uncommon. We report such tumors in a 44-year-old-woman and a 51-year-old-man. The value of diagnostic imaging by US and CT is emphasized. These techniques can establish the solid nature of the mass and may be the first methods to suggest malignancy.
