Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome associated with cervical rib.
A true neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) associated with a cervical rib is considered extremely rare. The authors present their experience with 5 cases of true neurogenic TOS associated with a cervical rib. All patients were female and had a cervical rib confirmed radiographically pre-operatively. Average age was 34,8 years. Although all patients had been treated with several combinatio...

After a week or two the pain passed down into the left arm and fingers, where it remained until recently, though gradually diminishing. Shortly after the onset of pain it was noticed that her l...
متن کاملCervical magnetic stimulation as a method to discriminate between diaphragm and rib cage muscle fatigue.
Inspiratory muscle fatigue can probably determine hypercapnic respiratory failure. Diaphragm fatigue is detected by electrical phrenic stimulation (ELS), but there is no simple tool to assess rib cage muscle (RCM) fatigue. Cervical magnetic stimulation (CMS) costimulates the phrenic nerves and RCM. We reasoned that changes in transdiaphragmatic pressure twitch (Pdi,tw) with CMS and ELS should b...
