The anterior scalene muscle is a synergistic stabiliser of the neck and acts together with the other scalene muscles to elevate rib I.

It originates from the anterior tubercles of the transverse processes of vertebrae C3 - C6 and inserts onto the scalene tubercle and upper surface of rib I.

It is innervated by the anterior rami of C5 - C6.
