| Description | Symptomatology of this syndrome is caused by compression of a nervous and vascular plexus in a physiological isthmus in an upper thoracic aperture. The symptoms are divided to neurological and vascular ones. The treatment should always be conservative incl. rehabilitation unless the acute vascular incidence occurs, which is the indication for a surgical intervention. Authors describe their experience with diagnostic, treatment and its results at the surgical departement which deals with the issue for a long time. |
