Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome.
[thoracic outlet syndrome]
Arterial
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
is
a
rare
cause
of
shoulder
pain
due
to
compression
of
the
subclavian
or
axillary
artery
within
the
thoracic
outlet
.
It
is
the
least
common
form
of
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
but
is
potentially
dangerous
as
it
can
result
in
significant
morbidity
.
An
athlete
initially
may
present
with
exertional
pain
,
early
fatigability
,
a
dull
ache
,
or
discomfort
in
the
affected
arm
.
History
and
physical
examination
are
paramount
in
diagnosis
,
and
imaging
confirms
the
anatomy
.
Surgical
repair
or
resection
alleviates
the
compression
of
the
affected
structure
and
allows
for
a
safe
return
to
participation
.
Familiarity
with
this
condition
aids
in
the
prompt
diagnosis
and
treatment
of
this
disorder
.
