The Superficial Pectoral —The superficial fascia which is generally dis-tributed over the entire body is everywhere divisible into a superficial fibro-adiposelayer in which the cutaneous vessels and nerves ramify and a deep fibro-membranouslayer to which the superficial layer is more or less firmly attached; the superficial fasciais loosely bound to the underlying deep fascia. In certain parts of the body, the deep layer of the superficial fascia presents an i
