We present a case of a 17­‑year­‑old adolescent with a painless hard palpable mass in the left supraclavicular fossa. Thoracic x­‑ray revealed a left cervical rib. A normal variant of the ribs must be considered in the differential diagnosis of a supraclavicular mass. In most cases x­‑ray is sufficient for the diagnosis.

Palabras clave : cervical ribs.
