Primary osteosarcomas arising from the rib are very rare. The authors report an 11-year-old boy with a primary fibroblastic osteosarcoma of the rib, who underwent wide excision and reconstruction of the chest wall followed by chemotherapy.

Diseases of the Chest, 1962
1. It is suggested that the numerous chest-wall syndromes involving painful costal cartilage be identified by the term "Rib syndrome," to indicate a single entity or process. 2. Selections from 50 cases of the "Rib syndrome" are presented, some of which illustrate the interrelationships of the numerous acute types of chest wall conditions as one ...
