The rate of removal from blood of intravenously injected colloidal carbon was used to measure the functional capacity of liver phagocytes. The carbon disappearance rate constant was initially reduced and gradually returned to normal following injection into mice of saccharated iron oxide or colloidal carbon. This index of phagocytic activity increased above normal after zymosan, estradiol or bacterial endotoxin administration. To determine whether these increases were associated with cell proliferation, liver DNA synthesis was measured. Incorporation of radioactive phosphate into DNA of mouse livers rose markedly after administration of these substances. To characterize the cell type responsible for the large increases in DNA synthesis, radioautographs of liver sections were prepared from mice previously given tritium-labeled thymidine. The label was rarely seen in parenchymal cells, whereas many littoral cells were labeled.

ABSTRACTLittoral cell angioma (LCA) is a rare, benign primary vascular neoplasm of the spleen. The tumor originates from the littoral cells lining the sinuses of the red pulp of the spleen. Preoperative distinction of this tumor from other benign or malign splenic lesions is difficult. Radiologically most cases present as multiple nodules. Definitive diagnosis can only be made histopathologically and immunohistochemically following splenectomy. This clinical situation can coexist with various malignancies and autoimmune disorders. Even though, it is mostly benign, since it has the potential to become malignant after splenectomy, long-term follow-up is required. We present an LCA case, which appeared as a solitary mass in the spleen of an 11-year-old girl with abdominal pain admitted to our hospital.
