ALL SHOULDER girdle compression syndromes have one problem in common 1 ; compression of the brachial plexus and the subclavian artery and vein, usually between the clavicle and first rib (Fig 1). Grouping the separate syndromes under the single heading of thoracic outlet syndrome 2 has allowed more accurate diagnostic and therapeutic measures to be ...
