경늑골에 의한 신경인성 가슴문증후군 1예 = A Case of True Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome by Cervical Rib.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

True neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) is an extremely rare condition, probably occurring with an incidence
of one per million. It is often misdiagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome or benign focal amyotrophy, and careful clinical examination,
electrodiagnostic studies, and imaging studies are essential for the correct diagnosis. Here, we report a 23-year-old
woman with slowly progressive weakness and atrophy of abductor pollicis brevis who were found to have NTOS caused
by cervical rib.
