Treatment of left tenth rib haemangioma vascularised by a costal artery giving the artery of Adamkiewicz.

Haemangioma of the ribs is considered an extremely rare benign tumour. Here, we present a case of a young male with left tenth rib haemangioma vascularised by a costal artery giving the artery of Adamkiewicz presented as chronic cough. This was successfully treated through preoperative embolisation and surgical resection. A preoperative angiogram was performed to identify the origin of the artery of Adamkiewicz. The final diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically. There were no complications in the postoperative course and no recurrence during 12 months of follow-up.
