Abstract:
Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis is a rare syndrome characterized by hyperostosis and soft tissue ossification between the clavicle and the anterior part of the upper ribs. Since first reported in 1974, the syndrome has been noted predominantly in Japan(1). Our case report describes the disorder and its radiologic manifestations.
