Abstract: Hemangiomas affecting the chest wall are rare. The literature suggests sporadic cases of these chest wall tumors.

We describe the physical, clinical, imaging and pathology findings as well as the surgical therapeuthic procedure. In addition we review the literature for similar cases reported.
