Background: Spontaneous hemothorax is often related with several self-diseases in the absence of history of trauma or iatrogenic injury.
Case presentation: This study aimed to report the case of a 30-year-old patient diagnosed with peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) accompanied by an intra-thoracic hemorrhage as the initial and life-threatening manifestation. To our knowledge, this is the second case being reported with spontaneous hemothorax due to PNET and also the first one being reported in adult patients.
Conclusions: The clinicians should keep in mind that the PNET is one of rare cause of spontaneous hemothorax.
