Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia of rib was not considered as part of the differential diagnosis of chest discomfort, since it is typically painless. We present a patient with left chest pain due to fibrous dysplasia of the fourth rib left side. This is a rare presentation described with fibrous dysplasia of the rib with left chest pain that mimicked angina.
