Abstract
Splenic hemangioma is a very rare neoplasm in children. On magnetic resonance imaging,
splenic hemangioma shows high signal intensity on T2-weighted images. In this report,
we present the first pediatric case of a splenic hemangioma, which was significantly
hypointense on T2-weighted images.
