Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome—Presentation, Diagnosis, and Treatment. [PDF]

Dtsch Arztebl Int, 2022
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) refers to a group of disorders in which there is compression of and/or damage to the neurovascular structures at the thoracic outlet, i.e., at the transition from chest to neck. The incidence of neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (nTOS) is estimated to be 2-3 / 100 000 / year, with an estimated prevalence of 10 / 100 000.
