摘要：
We report a case of life-threatening hemothorax three months after surgical repair of pectus escavatum. Angiography revealed the hemorrhage to originate from a laceration of the phrenic artery secondary to dislodgment of the metal strut used for the repair. Awareness of this rare complication in patients after repair of pectus excavatum is required.
