A CT scan demonstrated a focally calcified, well-demarcated tumor which completely encompassed and obliterated one rib with involvement of adjacent ribs, as well as extending peripherally into the soft tissues of the thoracic wall (Fig. 1). She subsequently underwent needle biopsy resulting in a small aggregate of gray-tan semi-translucent tissue fragments.
