Hemorrhagic pleural effusion due to pleural hemangioma.

We report a rare case of isolated pleural hemangioma presenting as recurrent, haemorrhagic pleural effusion. Chest radiograph and computed tomography of chest was suggestive of left apical tumour. Diagnosis of hemangioma was revealed only after thoracotomy and excision of the tumour mass.
