Abstract
Variations in muscle topography are common in human body. They may or may not be associated with neuromuscular abnormalities. Variations, being common, increases their importance especially in the subjects like orthopaedics, CVTS, Plastic surgery and Physiotherapy. During routine dissection of a cadaver while teaching medical students in Government Medical College Jammu, We found muscle that runs along the anterior aspect of the body of the sternum. It lies superficially and parallel to the sternum. The knowledge of this muscle is crucial, especially among peoples involved in imaging of pectoral region. It is often associated with many congenital anomalies as well. The present study was conducted on 12 cadavers in the department of anatomy, Govt. Medical College, Jammu.
