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 ...

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.

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.

Thoracic outlet syndrome remains a clinical diagnosis dependent almost exclusively on one's history and physical examination. Shoulder girdle depression, which may be present as a result of postural abnormalities or trauma (athletic or otherwise) has become recognized as an important cause of thoracic outlet compression.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is one of the most controversial clinical entities in medicine. We provide a review of this difficult-to-treat disorder, including a brief overview, clinical presentations, surgical anatomy, treatment options, and outcomes.

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.

Abstract Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) consists of a group of distinct pathologies arising as a result of compression of structures at the thoracic outlet. The structures at risk are, from anterior to posterior, the subclavian vein, subclavian artery and brachial plexus. Compression or impingement causes venous (VTOS), arterial (ATOS) or neurogenic (

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.

Die Bezeichnung Thoracic-outlet-Syndrom (TOS) wird undifferenziert fur alle Beschwerdebilder zusammengefasst, bei denen im Bereich der oberen Thoraxapertur nervale oder vaskulare Strukturen durch Druck geschadigt bzw. beeintrachtigt werden. Es subsumiert das Halsrippen-, Scalenus-anterior-, Pectoralis-minor-, kostoklavikulare und Hyperabduktionssyndrom.

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 ...
