title: Intercostal artery aneurysmosis.
abstract: True intercostal artery aneurysms have been reported to occur in conjunction with neurofibromatosis, coarctation of the aorta, and Kawasaki disease. However, there has not been a previous report of a patient with intercostal artery aneurysmosis and no known or diagnosed associated condition. We describe the first such patient and review the literature.
