Abstract
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) is the constellation of symptoms caused by compression of neurovascular structures at the superior aperture of the thorax, properly the thoracic inlet! The diagnosis and treatment is contentious and some even question its existence. Symptoms are often confused with distal compression neuropathies or cervical radiculopathies.
