Abstract

The importance of continuing to record and discuss anatomical anomalies was addressed recently by Hicks & Newell (1997) in the light of technical advances and interventional methods of diagnosis and treatment. Two recent radiological reports (Bradley et al. 1996; Murphy & Nokes, 1996) highlighted the diagnostic dilemma posed by a sternalis muscle in the detection of breast cancer.
