In patients suffering from chronic, therapy-resistant shoulder and arm pains, the thoracic outlet compression syndrome (TOS) should be included in the differential diagnosis. It is very important to look out for neurogenic disorders as well as early signs of vascular compression in order to prevent ischaemic injuries. Although the initial complaints appear slight and can in some cases be treated successfully by conservative methods, neurogenic disorders due to TOS as well as arterial and venous manifestations of the syndrome should be treated by resection of the first rib. Only in this way can irreversible neurogenic lesions and arterial or venous complications be prevented. 相似文献

Thoracic outlet compression syndrome. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Forty-nine patients underwent sixty-four procedures for the treatment of the thoracic outlet compression syndrome. Detailed history and careful physical examination are of paramount importance in diagnosing this disease. Our findings strongly suggest that a positive arteriogram is confirmatory evidence of the thoracic outlet compression syndrome. Two problems are identified as the source of unsatisfactory results in this series: poor selection of patients and the regeneration of rib and dense scar tissue with recurrence of compression symptoms. We favor the transaxillary approach to resection of the first rib because it provides satisfactory exposure for removal of the entire rib and utilizes a more cosmetically pleasing incision. Division of muscles, traction on nerves, and entrance into a body cavity are not required, operating time and hospital stay are shortened, and blood loss is minimized. Favorable long-term results were seen in 86 per cent of the patients treated. 相似文献

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is an often misdiagnosed cause of neck, shoulder, and arm disability. Neurovascular compression may be seen in the interscalene triangle, costoclavicular space, or posterior to the pectoralis minor, although any cause of abnormalities of shoulder girdle alignment may cause a localized area of brachial plexus compression. Nerve compression in this way may lead to upper extremity weakness, pain, paresthesias, and numbness. A careful and detailed medical history and physical examination are essential to proper identification of thoracic outlet syndrome, which remains primarily a clinical diagnosis. Diagnostic testing may differentiate other causes of pain or neurologic symptoms of the upper extremity from TOS. Clinical management is often challenging. 相似文献

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. Treatment addressing only the neurovascular structures may produce temporary relief of symptoms, but postural correction cannot be maintained without correction of the associated muscle imbalance in the cervicoscapular region. Long-term success of conservative management depends on patient compliance to a home exercise program and behavior modification at home and at work. Surgical decompression should be reserved for patients who fail to improve with conservative management. 相似文献

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 (NTOS) TOS. NTOS is the most common presentation, caused by compression of the brachial plexus at the scalene triangle or pectoralis minor space. Other compression syndromes at the carpal and cubital tunnels should be excluded. Management is usually conservative, employing physiotherapy and postural exercises, but pain or muscle wasting may be indications for surgery. VTOS is caused by compression of the subclavian vein at the costoclavicular junction, resulting in venous thrombosis, the Paget-Schroetter syndrome, often as a result of exercise in fit young muscular people or musicians. Positional swelling of the upper limb without thrombosis is termed McCleery's syndrome. In the presence of thrombosis, clot lysis, first rib excision and venoplasty may be indicated. ATOS occurs due to compression of the subclavian artery at the scalene triangle, often in association with an anomalous bony structure, such as cervical rib, causing post-stenotic aneurysmal dilation of the artery, thrombosis and embolization. Acute upper limb ischaemia necessitates urgent cervical rib excision and arterial reconstruction. 相似文献

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) should no longer be considered a single entity. The syndromes are venous (V-TOS), arterial (A-TOS) and neurological (N-TOS), but may co-exist. 相似文献

The diagnosis and treatment of thoracic outlet syndrome based on a personal experience with 473 patients resulted in relief of symptoms in over 90 percent of patients treated operatively. The diagnosis centers on a thorough history and the exclusion of other causes of arm and shoulder pain, utilizing a strict flow pattern of differential diagnosis. Angiography and electromyography are of limited value and should only be performed in selected cases. Operation should be reserved for the thoroughly evaluated patient who continues to have pain despite adequate conservative therapy. Transaxillary removal of the first rib, fibromuscular bands, and cervical rib, when present, is the operation of choice. 相似文献

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is no longer considered to be a single entity. The syndromes are venous (V-TOS), arterial (A-TOS) and neurological (N-TOS), but may co-exist. The end stage of VTOS (Paget Schroetter syndrome or effort thrombosis of the subclavian vein) should be recognized early so that younger sportsmen and musicians in particular can be offered the opportunity of thrombolysis, decompression surgery and balloon venoplasty. Most uncomplicated cases of A-TOS and N-TOS can be treated conservatively with posture, diet, physiotherapy advice and reassurance. Complicated arterial TOS, with aneurysm or embolization, should be treated expeditiously by cervical rib excision and arterial reconstruction. Double crush syndromes are relatively common in patients with TOS. It is easier to treat carpal tunnel syndrome than N-TOS. Muscle wasting and pain are an indication for surgery in N-TOS. 相似文献

Thoracic Outlet Syndromes (TOS) consists of a group of distinct pathologies arising from compression or impingement of structures at the thoracic outlet. The structures at risk are, from anterior to posterior, subclavian vein (venous — VTOS), subclavian artery (arterial — ATOS) and brachial plexus (neurogenic — NTOS). NTOS is the most common presentation, usually caused by compression of the brachial plexus at the scalene triangle or pectoralis minor space. Neurogenic compression syndromes at the carpal and cubital tunnels should be excluded. Management of NTOS is usually conservative, employing physiotherapy and postural exercises, but pain or muscle wasting may be indications for surgery. VTOS is caused by compression of the subclavian vein at the costoclavicular junction, resulting in venous thrombosis (Paget—Schroetter syndrome) often as a result of exercise in fit young muscular people or musicians. Positional swelling of the upper limb without thrombosis is termed McCleery's syndrome. In acute thrombosis, clot lysis, first rib excision and venoplasty may be indicated. ATOS occurs due to compression of the subclavian artery at the scalene triangle, often in association with an anomalous bony structure, such as cervical rib, causing post-stenotic aneurysmal dilation of the artery, thrombosis and distal embolization. Acute upper limb ischaemia necessitates urgent cervical rib excision and arterial reconstruction. 相似文献

Positional arteriography has not proved to be of significant assistance in the evaluation of patients with thoracic outlet compression and should be reserved for those patients presenting with an obvious arterial problem such as aneurysm, obstruction, or embolic phenomena. Positional ulnar nerve conduction times were positive in 88 per cent of all patients operated on for thoracic outlet compression. Patients with normal neutral and elevated velocities through the outlet should be approached cautiously from a surgical standpoint. We believe that positional ulnar nerve conduction times are a desirable addition to the diagnostic armamentarium of the physician evaluating the patient presenting with symptoms and signs of the thoracic outlet compression syndrome. 相似文献
