Chest wall haemangiomas are rare and they may mimic soft tissue sarcoma. Biopsy or attempt of surgical excision before imaging may lead to bleeding which can be life threatening. A 40-year-old male patient presented to the Outpatient Department (OPD) with large, painless swelling on the left side of back. On examination, 25×15 cm non tender, firm in consistency swelling was noted which was fixed to underlying muscle. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed multiple dilated sinuses with blood suggestive of haemangioma/arteriovenous malformation. Patient underwent excision of haemangioma without any complication.

Patient had no recurrence after one year follow-up.
