Eleven patients with vascular sequelae of thoracic outlet syndrome were operated on at the University of California, SanFrancisco, during the past 17 years. Five patients presented with episodes of ischemia of the arm and hand secondary to microemboli released from subclavian arterial lesions produced by chronic compression at the thoracic outlet ...

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2002
Success in conservative management depends upon an accurate assessment and development of a treatment plan relative to the irritability of the patient's condition. Postural correction and avoidance of irritating positions must begin early in the rehabilitation phase to retrain the patient in symptom-reducing postures.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1974
Detection of significant neural compression utilizing nerve conduction velocity and electromyographic studies has emerged to become critically important in confirming a diagnosis of thoracic outlet compression. Decompression of the thoracic outlet has been accomplished by scalenotomy, cervical or first rib resection, or claviclectomy.

A careful history and thorough physical examination are the most important components in establishing the diagnosis of TOS. The use of radiographic and laboratory tests, when indicated, can improve the diagnostic yield. Provocative positional maneuvers must be evaluated for their vascular and, more important, for their neurologic response.

Abstract Thoracic outlet syndrome is a complex syndrome that manifests with symptoms based on the presumed injury or impairment of the neurovascular structures in the thoracic outlet space with its intricate anatomy and pathophysiology. The thoracic outlet is a specific anatomical region with three distinct anatomical spaces — interscalene ...

Arterial Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2014Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome is a rare cause of shoulder pain due to compression of the subclavian or axillary artery within the thoracic outlet. It is the least common form of thoracic outlet syndrome but is potentially dangerous as it can result in significant morbidity.

Thoracic outlet compression syndrome
The American Journal of Surgery, 1975Forty-nine patients underwent sixty-four procedures for the treatment of the thoracic outlet compression syndrome. Detailed history and careful physical examination are of paramount importance in diagnosing this disease. Our findings strongly suggest that a positive arteriogram is confirmatory evidence of the thoracic outlet compression syndrome.

TOS may arise in a variety of circumstances including trauma, but it may also be seen as a result of postural abnormalities that may be induced by different factors. Cervical ribs and other congenital anomalies are not necessary prerequisites for either the causation or diagnosis of TOS, although they are more common in the TOS population.
