What does a chicken breast look like

First, different kinds of diseases of chicken breast show different appearances. There are three main types of such diseases. Among them, boat chest mainly includes sternum elongation, forward protrusion, bilateral lower costal cartilage subsidence, which is like the keel of a boat, and in severe cases, the chest volume is reduced. On the lateral X-ray film, the ribs were separated from the sternum, and the retrosternal space was extended.

The second case is the protrusion of the sternal stalk, the junction of sternal body and adjacent costal cartilage. If the sternal angle decreases, the sternal body will sink and the second to fifth costal cartilage will rise beside the sternum. The ossification line of sternum, especially the early ossification at the junction of sternum stalk and sternum body, can be seen before 3 years old. In general, 99% of the people, regardless of their age, have an open sternal stalk and sternal body junction. The ossification at the junction of sternal stalk and sternal body and the protrusion of sternal angle are called "sternal angular osteojunction".

Third, unilateral breast is also called asymmetric breast, which is characterized by one side of chest wall protruding, sometimes accompanied by contralateral subsidence. Costochondral deformity plays an important role in this type, and the abnormal position of sternum is not obvious.
