We describe three cases of xiphodynia in patients with prominence of the xyphoid process under the skin. The xiphosternal angle was 105°, 135°, and 120° in these three patients, respectively, compared to a mean of 172 ± 15° in 60 individuals without xiphodynia evaluated by computed tomography for another reason. The prominence of the xyphoid process caused discomfort and local irritation and was the source of the pain in all three patients. This abnormality should be looked for routinely in patients reporting xiphodynia.
我们描述了 3 例皮下胸骨突出患者的胸骨痛。这 3 例患者的剑胸结合角分别为 105°、135°和 120°，而因其他原因接受计算机断层扫描检查的 60 例无胸骨痛患者的平均角度为 172°±15°。胸骨突出引起不适和局部刺激，是所有 3 例患者疼痛的根源。在报告胸骨痛的患者中，应常规寻找这种异常。
