    Abstract:
    We report a case of hemothorax in a patient with von Recklinghausen's disease. A 40-year-old male was transfered to our hospital because of sudden severe right back pain. Chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed right hemothorax that ruptured intercostal artery. He underwent selective angiography that demonstrated a pseud aneurhysm in the 10th intercostals artery and treated with endovascular coil embolization. We conducted surgical right thoracic drainage on post embolization day 7. In the 2 year since his embolization and operation, there has been no recurrence of hemothorax.
