801 W Road to Six Flags St Suite 146 near N. Cooper St., Fort Worth TX

Description

There are three general types of thoracic outlet syndrome: Neurogenic (neurologic) thoracic outlet syndrome(most common type): Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome gets characterized by the compression of the brachial plexus. Doctors define the brachial plexus as the network of nerves that give movement and feeling in the arms and hands. Venous thoracic outlet syndrome. Occurs when one or more of the veins under the collarbone (clavicle) are compressed, resulting in blood clots. Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome. The least common type of TOS. It occurs when one of the arteries under the collarbone is compressed, resulting in the bulging of the artery, also known as an aneurysm. It’s possible to have a combination of the three different types of thoracic outlet syndrome, with multiple parts of the thoracic outlet being compressed.
