Cervical rib syndrome

Cervical ribs are commonly found in fish and reptiles, and have been degraded in humans. Cervical ribs are the name of an abnormal anatomical structure in the human body and are generally considered to be one of the most common causes of thorax exit syndrome. Not all people with cervical ribs have symptoms, and those with cervical ribs should be considered a disease when they have symptoms, that is, cervical rib syndrome. Cervical rib syndrome rarely occurs in people under 30 years of age.
