ABSTRACT

SUMMARY:

Accessory muscles of the neck are rare and are of clinical significance when present. During routine dissection of head and neck, two accessory muscles were found in the neck region of two cadavers, both male, one on the right and the other on the left. Both muscles took origin from the superior margin of the scapula and the insertion of the first muscle was to the clavicle, merging with subclavius and the second muscle got inserted to the first rib near the costochondral junction. This paper highlights the clinical significance and embryological aspects of such accessory muscles in the neck region.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN Los músculos accesorios del cuello son infrecuentes y tienen importancia clínica cuando están presentes. Durante la disección de rutina de la cabeza y el cuello, se encontraron dos músculos accesorios en la región del cuello de dos cadáveres, ambos de sexo masculino, uno a la derecha y otro a la izquierda. Ambos músculos se originaban en el margen superior de la escápula y la inserción del primer músculo se extendía a la clavícula, fusionándose con el músculo subclavio. El segundo músculo se insertó en la primera costilla cerca de la unión costocondral. Este artículo destaca la importancia clínica y los aspectos embriológicos de dichos músculos accesorios en la región del cuello.
