There are three types of thoracic outlet syndrome—neurogenic, venous, and arterial—each with its own clinical features and treatment algorithm. Neurogenic TOS (nTOS) is by far the most common type of TOS, with upwards of 90% of all TOS cases accounted for by nTOS in large single-institution series.1,2 Arterial TOS is the least common TOS, accounting for about 1% of cases, and venous TOS makes up the difference.3 These three types of TOS are not mutually exclusive and can coexist, potentially complicating the diagnostic workup. In addition, the compression of the neurovascular bundle can occur in three distinct anatomic levels: the interscalene triangle, the costoclavicular space, and the pectoralis minor triangle or subcoracoid space.4,5 This chapter addresses the supraclavicular approach to first rib resection and scalenectomy, which is well suited for the management of nTOS, especially in the case of a cervical rib.
