Surgical Treatment of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome -A Case Report-
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Thoracic outlet syndrome presents with symptoms resulting from pressure on either the subclavian vessels or the lower trunk of the brachial plexus. It may be caused by a number of abnormalities, including degenerative or bony disorders, trauma to
the
cervical spine, fibromuscular bands, vascular abnormalities, and spasm of the anterior scalene muscle. We experienced a case of thoracic outlet syndrome (caused by cervical rib).
We report a case with review of literatures.
