Abstract:
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor and liposarcoma very rarely present as tumors of the chest wall. Never have both been reported together in the same lesion. We present a case wherein a 72-year-old man with a rapidly progressing lesion initially mistaken for a local infection underwent resection with diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. He experienced recurrence less than 6 months before radical resection revealed well to dedifferentiated liposarcoma with areas of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. He is now doing well with over 4 years of follow-up.

Flail Chest-I
Flail chest is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the fracture of three or more adjacent ribs in multiple places. It is most commonly caused by direct impacts and trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents or injuries from a steering wheel impact. It can also occur due to falls in elderly individuals with osteoporosis, or assaults involving sharp objects.
Pathophysiology
