Abstract Multiple hereditary exostoses is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the growth of multiple osteochondromas. We describe the thoracoscopic remodeling of a spiculated costal exostotic lesion responsible for spontaneous recurrent hemothoraces in a 17-year-old male patient with multiple hereditary exostoses.
