| Abstract: | Chest wall tumors are uncommon, but intercostal hemangioma is even more so: There have been only a handful of reports on it
to date. We report on a 32-year-old man with a left-side chest wall mass detected on a chest roentgenogram and computed tomography
scans. The tumor was completely resected by means of video-assisted thoracic surgery. Two years after the surgery, the patient
is doing well with no evidence of recurrence. |
