Abstract
During the routine anatomy dissection for the undergraduate students, an uncommon variation in relation tobones was observed. The muscle attachments of the axial and appendicular skeleton were associated with theformation of extensive enthesophytes. The bones mainly responsible for the weight transmission especially inthe lower limbs were observed to have an abundant new bone formation in the area for muscle and ligamentattachments. This information may be of importance to radiologist, surgeons who are seeking to reduce themorbidity associated with dissections in this region, particularly related to paresthesias and nerve compressions
