Resumen

El síndrome del desfiladero torácico superior (SDTS) consiste en un cuadro clínicamente bien definido, con manifestaciones neurovasculares variables según las estructuras comprometidas en el trayecto cervicoaxilar, y desencadenado por diversas causas.

Se describe el caso de una joven afectada de dorso curvo, que tras tratamiento ortopédico lyonés, con apoyo anterior en hombros, comenzó de forma casi inmediata a presentar sintomatología indicativa de SDTS, la cual remitió tras la supresión de la ortesis. Cabe destacar la originalidad etiológica de este caso, así como su forma de presentación. Revisada la bibliografía sobre el tema no hemos encontrado descripciones etiológicas similares.

Summary

The thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) consists of a clearly defined clinical picture charaterized by a subset of neuro-vascular manifestations which may vary depending on structures of the cervico-axillary area involved, and it can be triggered off by a range of causes.

We report the case of a young woman affected by hyper-kyphosis who, following orthopaedic Lyones treatment, which included front shoulder support, suddenly presented with clinical symptoms suggestive of TOS, which disappeared after the orthosis removal. We would like to emphasize the etiologic origin and form of presentation of the TOS symptoms in our patient. To our knowledge following a thorough review of the literature on this issue no similar etiologic reports have been found.
