ABSTRACT
This presentation discusses thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) in the context of compression neuropathies. In particular, this presentation details conservation management of TOS and the pathogenesis of cumulative trauma disorder. Additionally, a case presentation for conservative management is included. When conservative management fails, our surgical management is a thoracic outlet decompression through a scalenectomy of the anterior and middle scalenes. A step-by-step illustrated and technical approach of this procedure is included.
