Bilateral and unilateral spontaneous massive hemothorax as a presenting manifestation of rare tumors.

Spontaneous true hemothorax is quite a rare manifestation of a presenting disease. This is a report of two patients, one with bilateral spontaneous massive hemothorax as a presenting manifestation of angiosarcoma involving the lungs and pleura, and the other with unilateral spontaneous hemothorax and hemorrhagic shock as a presenting manifestation of 'cystic' chondroblastoma. Differential diagnosis of spontaneous true hemothorax and its evaluation and management are discussed.
