Description

A 32-year-old man was admitted because of an abnormal shadow on chest radiograph. The chest CT scan revealed a tumor expanding from the left 6th rib. The bone scintigraphy showed positive at the same lesion. Surgical excision was performed to remove the tumor completely. The histopathological findings showed aneurymal bone cyst. Aneurysnmal bone cyst involving the rib is rare. We report this case along with a review of the literature.
