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.

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 1998
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.

clavicle. This compression results in intermittent to constant pain in the neck, shoulder, upper arm, forearm, or hand. Thoracic outlet syndrome is seen in about one percent of the population(1). The typical patient is a 35-year-old, slender housewife with well-developed musculature.

It is important to remember the possibility of nonspecific thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) when treating patients with neck and upper extremity symptoms. There are no specific diagnostic criteria for the syndrome. Diagnosis is based on symptoms, clinical examination and the ruling out of other causes.

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.

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 ...

Thoracic Outlet Compression Syndrome
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1996This article is concerned with thoracic outlet compression syndrome (TOCS), one of the most controversial subjects in medicine. It may also be the most underrated, overlooked, misdiagnosed, and probably the most important and difficult to manage peripheral nerve compression in the upper extremity.

The Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Is Underrated
Archives of Neurology, 1990The thoracic outlet syndromes (TOS) are caused by congenital or developmental anatomic anomalies of musculoskeletal tissues that cause abnormal compression and irritation of the brachial plexus and subclavian vessels. The most obvious anomaly is a cervical rib, but this is found in only about 10% of patients with TOS.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and the Shoulder
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1983Thoracic outlet syndrome may be the cause of symptoms wrongly attributed to shoulder pathology, or it may accompany or result from shoulder injury. If misdiagnosed, it may leave the physician wondering why relevant shoulder therapy fails to result in a return to full potential, but if correctly diagnosed, it can be cured or ameliorated.
