With emphasis on the clinical setting, knowledge of anatomical variation decreases misdiagnoses and surgical complications. We report a previously undocumented variant of sternalis muscle and recommend an augmented classification scheme.
Dissection of the anterior thoracic wall on an 83-year-old female cadaver revealed bilateral sternalis muscles. The Snosek et al. classification system was referenced to describe the variant types.
The right sternalis muscle has a single belly and can be classified using the Snosek et al. classification system as a simple type, right single. The left sternalis muscle presented with three muscle bellies, each having a unique pattern of superior attachments (heads). This variation is previously undocumented and requires a more detailed classification.
We propose the addition of a new subtype of sternalis classification, as well as a modification to the Snosek et al. (Clin Anat 27:866-884, 2014) classification scheme, to include classification of different muscle bellies when multiple are present.
强调临床背景下,了解解剖变异可减少误诊和手术并发症。我们报告一种此前未记录的胸骨肌变异,并推荐一种扩充的分类方案。
对一名83岁女性尸体的前胸壁进行解剖,发现双侧胸骨肌。参考Snosek等人的分类系统来描述变异类型。
右侧胸骨肌有一个肌腹,根据Snosek等人的分类系统可归类为简单型,右侧单一型。左侧胸骨肌有三个肌腹,每个肌腹都有独特的上部附着(起始部)模式。这种变异此前未被记录,需要更详细的分类。
我们建议增加胸骨肌分类的一个新亚型,并对Snosek等人(《临床解剖学》27:866 - 884,2014年)的分类方案进行修改,以包括存在多个肌腹时不同肌腹的分类。
