Abstract
Costal osteochondromas are a rare cause of lung injury. We report a 7-year-old male who presented with chest pain, cough, and left-sided pleural effusion following a fall. Imaging identified a 2 cm costal osteochondroma, which was resected with a thoracoscopic-assisted segmental rib resection.Entities:
