AbstractRectus abdominis is a long strap like muscle that extends along the entire length of anterior abdominal wall. Normally the rectus abdominis arises by two tendons. The larger lateral tendon attached to the crest of the pubis, pubic tubercle up to pectineal line. The medial tendon is attached to the pubic symphysis. The fleshy fibers of rectus abdominis replaced by aponeurosis below the umbilicus was found during the routine dissections of a middle aged female cadaver at Dr. Pinnamaneni Siddhartha Medical College, Chinnavutapalli, Andhra Pradesh, India. The knowledge of partial or complete absence of rectus abdominis and other anterior abdominal wall musculature is of immense importance for the General surgeon, Anatomist and the Gastroenterologist.

A 29-year-old female had presented to surgical outpatient's department complaining of lump in the anterior abdominal wall. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a solid degenerated tumor in the anterior abdominal wall. It was surgically excised, and histopathology confirmed it to be “ancient” schwannoma. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of an abdominal wall ancient schwannoma in the medical literature.
