Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by hypophosphatemia caused by excessive secretion of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) by tumors. This leads to impaired bone mineralization and, ultimately, osteomalacia. The most common underlying cause is a phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT).

Article Synopsis
- A 61-year-old man with a history of COPD, ongoing anticoagulant therapy, and pneumonia was admitted to the emergency department in critical condition due to chest pain and shortness of breath.
- A chest X-ray and CT scan revealed a large mediastinal hematoma, rib fractures, and significant blood loss requiring urgent reversal of his anticoagulant medication before surgery.
- After an emergency sternotomy to evacuate the hematoma, the patient made a full recovery, highlighting the importance of imaging in older patients with fall-related injuries and the need for careful management of anticoagulants.

The treatment concepts are diverse and surgical treatment is highlighted due to the risk of thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. There is still an ongoing debate regarding the postoperative necessity and duration of anticoagulation.
