They are associated with marked chest wall deformity that may cause respiratory distress in the neonate. The main challenge is the total excision of this tumor and the concomitant reconstitute of the affected tissues, since it usually occupies a large area of the thoracic wall and protrudes in the thoracic cavity. Radiologic imaging together with an expert multidisciplinary team of pediatric surgeon, anesthesiologist, cardiologist and an experienced NICU are of great importance in order to organize a successful surgical excision [2,3].
