- Abstract
Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is essentially a benign neoplasm arising from any site on the body; however, there has so far been only one report of JXG located on the chest wall involving a rib. This report presents a rare case finally diagnosed as JXG based on histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations.
