Accessory thoracic muscles in human foetuses [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Typically, the anterior thoracic wall musculature is composed of the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor. Embryologically, these 2 muscles originate from a common pectoral muscle mass; therefore, disruption of the normal development and ...

Ruptures of the pectoralis major and minor muscles
The pectoralis major (PMa) and pectoralis minor (PMi) muscles differ from each other in almost every aspect, despite the fact that they are localized very close to each other.

Use of Botulinum Toxin as a Treatment of Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain Syndrome: A Randomized Trial
Objective: The primary objective of this paper is to assess whether the use of 200 units of abobotulinum in the pectoralis major and subscapularis muscles modifies the pain complaint assessed using the visual analog scale in subjects with shoulder pain ...

Correction of an animation deformity that developed from breast implant removal [PDF]
Subpectoral implant insertion is considered to be the standard procedure for breast augmentation and reconstruction. However, in some patients who have undergone breast augmentation or reconstruction surgery with a prosthesis, implant removal may be ...

Mitochondrial function in sparrow pectoralis muscle [PDF]
SUMMARY Flying birds couple a high daily energy turnover with double-digit millimolar blood glucose concentrations and insulin resistance. Unlike mammalian muscle, flight muscle predominantly relies on lipid oxidation during locomotion at high fractions of aerobic capacity, and birds outlive mammals of similar body mass by a factor of ...

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing-propelled locomotion in birds. [PDF]
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Bilateral supernumerary pectoral muscle
Pectoral muscles are important muscles in the anterior chest wall, and they have a key role in the axillary region from the point of view of imaging and surgical procedures.

Overhead press is commonly performed to reinforce the muscles surrounding the shoulders. However, many overhead press variations can be executed, thus varying the stimuli to each muscle. Therefore, the current study compared the muscles excitation during
