Surgery Scar

Hump

Fatty and muscular protrusion which occurs on the upper part of the neck in some cattle species. Since the skin of the hump part is weaker than the remaining parts, it is torn during tanning and damages the remaining part of the leather, so it is cut before the tanning process. Thus, a gap occurs at the head of the skin.
