AbstractExtrapleural haematoma (EH) is a rare clinical condition of which four cases are presented. Different etiologies were encountered. Identical findings were found on the chest X-ray. Two cases were secondary to spontaneous rib fracture and the other two were iatrogenic. Surgical exploration was necessary in one patient following pleural biopsy. Medical treatment and clinical observation were the treatment of choice in the remaining three stable patients.
