Abstract
Costal cartilage fracture is a rare traumatic injury but the frequency is probably underestimated. This lesion, not visible on X-rays, is nevertheless simple diagnosis in ultrasound, computed tomography and MRI. We report here a case of low anterior anterior post-traumatic chest pain following a brawl in a young patient in general condition.
