Abstract

Benign tumors of the chest wall are rare. Aneurysmal bone cyst is a benign tumor of the skeleton system which mainly develops at the level of the long bones and the vertebrae, and rarely at the rib level. We present a case of a 17-year-old young female with no medical history who presents a mass at the right basal level of the chest wall. The CT scan shows a multiloculated mass at the level of the twelfth ribs, by an elective incision the tumor was resected. The histology was in favor of an aneurysmal bone cyst.
