Costal osteochondroma presenting as haemothorax and diaphragmatic laceration
2005
We report the unusual case of an 11-year-old girl who suffered a large haemothorax and lacerated left hemidiaphragm because of a costal osteochondroma arising from the left sixth rib near the costochondral junction. Surgical excision of the osteochondroma was performed and the lacerated diaphragm was repaired.
