- Abstract
Cervical rib refers to the presence of an additional costa at the level of the seventh vertebra. Its incidence is 0.2-8 percent and is seen bilaterally in half of the cases. Fusion, bone-bridge or fibrous bands between the cervical and first costa are frequently. However, pseudoarthrosis of the cervical rib with the first rib is reported quite rarely in the literature. In the present case, pseudoarthrosis was present between the cervical rib and the exocytosis, extending from the first rib.
