RESUMEN
Isolated sternal tuberculosis is a rarely described entity even in countries where tuberculosis is endemic. We report the case of 25 old years patient who presented with a chest wall mass. Imaging concluded to a (ring-enhancing hypodense soft tissue mass surrounding the sternum with sternal fracture). Malignancy was eliminated by a core needle biopsy. We noted clinical and radiological recovery with medical tuberculosis treatment. Neoplastic origin was removed by biopsy and anatomopathological study of the lesion.
