Abstract
Although uncommon, variant muscular variations can occur related to the quadri-ceps femoris. Such variations might be encountered in the clinical setting so these should be documented. Here, we report three additional heads related to the rectus femoris muscle identified during routine dissection of the right thigh. To our knowledge, such a variation has not been previously reported.
