Recurrent Subclavian Steal Syndrome: A Novel Case of Vasculopathy
We report herein the first documented case, to our knowledge, of a patient with SSS previously treated with left subclavian artery stenting and left common carotid-subclavian bypass who developed recurrent SSS in conjunction with orthostatic cerebral hypoperfusion syndrome (OCHOS) secondary to severe vasculopathy. She presented with recurrent, paroxysmal vertigo and near-syncope associated with left upper extremity paresthesias that would only abate with sitting in the context of left subclavian artery stent restenosis and occlusion of her left common carotid-subclavian bypass graft. Interestingly, her initial presentation...

Functional outcome of arterial thoracic outlet syndrome treatment
CONCLUSION: The mid-term self-reported symptom free survival in both the ATOX as well as ATOS group seems acceptable while median QuickDASH scores in both groups indicate a very good functional outcome. This however comes at the cost of treatment related bleeding complications in especially the ATOX group presumably due to thrombolysis, and re-interventions required in almost one out of three patients.PMID:36726955 | PMC:PMC9885003 | DOI:10.3389/fsurg.2022.1072536 (Source: Hand Surgery)

Prevalence and anatomy of the anomalous subclavius posticus muscle and its clinical implications with emphasis in neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome: Scoping review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: The subclavius posticus muscle is a variant muscle occurring with a reported overall prevalence of 4.9%. It can compress the brachial plexus as it runs across at the space of the superior thoracic aperture with exquisite contact, and this can lead to a neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome. It also can be involved in the vascular thoracic outlet syndrome. Lastly, it is important not to omit its potential influence in shoulder joint instability to some extent.PMID:36690046 | DOI:10.1016/j.aanat.2023.152046 (Source: Annals of Anatomy)

Ultrasound Detection of the Axillary Arch as a Cause of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome: A Prospective Dissection-Controlled Cadaver Study
Ultrasound as a diagnostic tool in thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is becoming increasingly important. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasound in detecting the axillary arch, an ancillary muscle potentially causing TOS. Two hundred upper limbs of 100 fresh, non-frozen, non-embalmed body donors were screened for axillary arches. Sonographic findings were validated by anatomic dissection. Twelve axillary arches were found in 200 upper extremities, corresponding to a prevalence of 8.0% per individual and 6.0% per upper extremity investigated.

Elective brachial plexus decompression in neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome
Hand Surg Rehabil. 2022 Nov 26:S2468-1229(22)00477-7. doi: 10.1016/j.hansur.2022.11.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe aimed to evaluate functional outcome following elective brachial plexus decompression by compressive fibrous band resection and limited on-demand bone abnormality resection in patients with neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (N-TOS). A retrospective continuous observational study was conducted in 17 patients (15 women and 2 men), with a mean age of 42 years, operated on between 2013 and 2021. Twenty brachial plexus decompressions were performed, for 13 objective and 7 subjective N-TOSs, including 3 rec...
