Bilateral neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome
Muscle & Nerve, 2003AbstractWe report a case of bilateral neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS). Electrophysiological examination suggested the presence of bilateral lower brachial plexus neuropathy. Radiography showed rudimentary bilateral cervical ribs. In the cases reported in the literature to date, the clinical findings are typically unilateral despite the common

Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
2018Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy involving the brachial plexus along its trajectory from the cervical spine to the axilla. Clinical presentation includes cervical and upper extremity pain as well as neurologic signs and symptoms in the lower trunk territory.

Recurrent neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome
The American Journal of Surgery, 2004Although 90% of patients with neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) experience "excellent" or "good" results after thoracic outlet decompression, recurrent symptoms may develop in certain patients.This is a retrospective review of patients with NTOS who developed recurrent symptoms of upper extremity/shoulder/neck pain, weakness and limitation of ...

Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
2015Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is divided into three categories based on the structures compressed within. Documented since the 1800s, neurogenic TOS (NTOS) accounts for the vast majority of cases and remains one of the most obscure problems seen in surgical practice.

Physical Therapy Management of Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2021Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome is a complex and challenging condition to manage. There is a lack of high-quality evidence to guide clinical decision making and therefore a need to individualize treatment. Examination includes identifying postural, anatomic, and biomechanical factors that contribute to compromise of the neurovascular structures ...

Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome in Whiplash Injury
Journal of Spinal Disorders, 2001A prospective study of 110 patients was carried out to determine the pathogenic significance of trauma to the upper body in the development of neural compressive irritation at the thoracic outlet. Twenty-nine patients were reviewed as cervical strain injuries (N group), 25 patients as probable neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) (PT group), 39 ...

ABSTRACTThe thoracic outlet syndromes (TOSs) are a group of etiologically and clinically distinct disorders with 1 feature in common: compression of 1 or more neurovascular elements as they traverse the thoracic outlet. The medical literature reflects 5 TOSs: arterial; venous; traumatic neurovascular; true neurogenic; and disputed.

Recurrent and Residual Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
2021Most often, recurrent neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) is due to post-operative scar tissue growth surrounding the dissected brachial plexus causing re entrapment and compression of nerves, with restriction of nerve movement and function. Other etiologies to consider for return of symptoms include another contributory diagnosis outside of ...
