ABSTRACT A 35‐year‐old woman with recurrent neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome underwent supraclavicular neurolysis and brachial plexus wrapping using a free DIEP flap. At 2‐year follow‐up, pain and functional scores (VAS, DASH, SF‐36) significantly improved. Free fat flaps offer a low morbidity option for reducing perineural fibrosis in RNTOS.

(A) Fifty MDD patients underwent an 8‐week TECAS treatment and were then classified into responders and nonresponders according to their clinical outcomes. (B) Resting‐state EEG was acquired from all participants and subsequently preprocessed. (C) Functional connectivity analysis revealed that TECAS modulates frontoparietal θ‐band connectivity in MDD ...
