Haemangiomas account for approximately 1% of all bone tumours and commonly involve the skull and the vertebrae Dorfman et al. (Human Pathol 2:349-376, 1971). Rare costal originated haemangiomas have been reported as a case report in literature Clements et al. (Am Surgeon 64:1027-1029, 1998), Filosso et al. (J Cardiovasc Surg 36:97-98, 1995). We report a case of 26 years old female presenting with haemangioma of the eighth rib (right). And conclude that haemangiomas should be included in the differential diagnoses of an osteolytic and expansile lesion of the ribs on radiology, especially in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients.
