Abstract
The anatomical details of origin, course and insertion of the crest are described and some indications are given about its function. The action of a hypertrophied crest in a hypertropied ventricle may contribute to that amt. of clockwise rotation of the apex which explains the ecg. phenomena in hypertrophy of the right ventricle.Keywords
