Is there no French word for the word "chest", other than "poitrine"?

I’m referring to the whole front part of the body in French shoulder to waist, not

“The woman holds her baby to her chest. La femme tient son bébé contre sa poitrine.”

or
“coffre m (plural: coffres m)
The pirates found gold in a wooden chest. Les pirates ont trouvé de l’or dans un coffre en bois.”
