Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 2000
Development of the sternum during the growth of the embryo is described. Anterior body wall defects in the thoracic region may be severe, leading to ectopia cordis, or mild, as in skin-covered sternal clefts. The embryologic basis for other sternal abnormalities, such as pectus excavatum and pectus carniatum, is not clear; however, abnormalities of rib

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1932
Abstract Although rare, fractures of the sternum probably occur more often than is realized or discovered. They are not diagnosed because serious complicating injuries often accompany them and because they are difficult to depict with the roentgen rays.

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1989
Eleven sternal chondrosarcomas were reviewed with radiologic emphasis on the CT findings. Typical clinical presentation was a large painless anterior chest wall mass in an elderly individual. In six cases the chest radiograph strongly suggested an underlying cartilaginous neoplasm owing to the appearance of typical mineralized cartilage matrix, i.e., a

The sternum as an electrical shield
2014 36th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2014The TASER(®) conducted electrical weapon (CEW) delivers electrical pulses that can temporarily incapacitate subjects. We analyzed the distribution of TASER CEW currents in tissues posterior to the sternum to understand the likelihood of triggering cardiac arrhythmias.

Insufficiency fractures of the sternum
Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 2003Insufficiency fractures occur within weakened bones that are unable to withstand the stress of every day normal activities. The spine, pelvis, and lower long-bone extremities are common sites of insufficiency fractures. Spontaneous sternal insufficiency fracture (SIF) has rarely been reported in elderly patients.

Intraosseous neurilemoma of the sternum
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999Sternal benign bone tumor is uncommon. We report a very rare case of intraosseous neurilemoma in the sternum. A girl, 10 years of age, was diagnosed as having a sternal tumor. Computed tomographic scan disclosed a mushroom-shape tumor in the region from inside of the sternum to the ventral soft tissues. Surgical resection was performed. Histopathologic

Chondromyxoid fibroma of the sternum
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2003Primary chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) of the sternum is quite rare with only four cases documented in the literature. We present a new case of CMF arising from the sternum of a 47-year-old man and compare it with the previous cases.

The skeletal changes of severe hyperparathyroidism, known as osteitis fibrosa cystica, are now rarely encountered, because hyperparathyroidism is currently being diagnosed and treated at an early stage. Herein, a case of brown tumor of the sternum is reported; our report adds histologic data on this type of tumor to the literature.

Chondromyxoid fibroma of the sternum
Skeletal Radiology, 1996We report the fourth case of chondromyxoid fibroma of the sternum described in the literature. The clinical, radiographic, pathologic and treatment aspects of this case are presented, and the literature on chondromyxoid fibroma in this unusual location is reviewed.
