Description
Caiyang Liu and co-authors report surgery on a giant rib cartilage tumor in a 2024 paper. A 49-year-old woman had swelling of the right chest and belly wall that grew over fifteen years. Scans showed a huge mass wrapping ribs eight to twelve and pressing on the liver.
Biopsy pointed to a low-grade chondrosarcoma. The team removed the tumor with parts of five ribs and the diaphragm. They rebuilt the diaphragm and closed the large wall defect with a surgical mesh. Final lab checks graded the tumor one step higher. Recovery was smooth, and no return appeared at three months.
