Isolated splenic peliosis presenting with giant splenomegaly and severe coagulopathy.

We herein describe a case of successful surgical treatment of isolated splenic peliosis presenting with giant splenomegaly and severe coagulopathy. Pathological features of the spleen included multinodular, blood-filled, cyst-like lesions distributed throughout the whole organ. The pathogenesis of isolated splenic peliosis is controversial, and no definitive disease mechanism has been reported. To our knowledge, this is the first report in English of a case like this.
