Xanthomas of the rib are extremely rare benign neoplasms, most commonly reported in soft tissue, but rarely in bone. We report a case of a 4-cm xanthoma of the rib resected by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and pulled through a 2-cm port incision around the patient's areola. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 8 other such cases, and none of which were removed by thoracoscopic surgery.
肋骨黄瘤是极为罕见的良性肿瘤,最常见于软组织,但很少发生于骨骼。我们报告一例通过电视辅助胸腔镜手术切除的4厘米肋骨黄瘤病例,该肿瘤通过患者乳晕周围一个2厘米的切口取出。据我们所知,仅有另外8例此类病例,且均未通过胸腔镜手术切除。
