Sixteen patients with hemangiomas of the ribs aged 18 to 51 were examined. Additional data on x-ray semeiotics of this condition are presented: the localization, structure, shape, and contours of these tumors are described in detail. Hemangiomas with an extraosseous component were detected, which should be differentiated from other pathological, mainly neoplastic malignant, processes in the ribs and lungs. The authors demonstrated the potentialities of the traditional x-ray method and computer-aided tomography in the diagnosis of hemangiomas of the ribs. |
