    Abstract:
    Primary tumors of the sternum are rare and most of them are malignant. Benign lesions are typically chondromas, bone cysts, or hemangiomas. Among these tumors, hemangiomas are extremely rare. We report a rare case of hemangioma of the sternum. The patient was successfully treated with complete resection of the tumor and sternum stability was obtained by polypropylene mesh and methylmethacrylate.
