Connective Tissue of Pectoralis Major Muscle: Anatomical Study

France46 participantsStarted 2024-07-11

Plain-language summary

The delto-pectoral tendon (DPT) is a new tendon recently identified. It completes the insertion of the pectoralis major and perfectly explains the different injuries encountered. The objective of this observational study is to visualize this new tendon, the DPT, using ultrasound, to measure it, to characterize its role in the overall architecture of the pectoralis major muscle and to analyze its relationship with its main tendon and the anterior and posterior laminae.
