Study Design.Consecutive case series.Objective.Our aim was to evaluate the outcomes of patients who underwent supraclavicular scalenotomy followed by external neurolysis without rib resection for post-traumatic NTOS.Summary of Background Data.Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) comprises over 95% of all TOS patients, and most patients with NTOS have a history of trauma before the onset of their symptoms.Methods.Patients treated with supraclavicular scalenotomy and neurolysis without rib resection from September 2014 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed by using the medical records and operative notes. Patient's characteristics, clinical symptoms before treatment, operative findings, and short-and long-term outcomes were assessed. To assess clinical outcomes at 2 months after surgery (short-term outcomes) and 12 months later (long-term outcomes), we used a 4-grade categorization (Excellent, Good, Fair, and Poor) of patients’ subjective evaluations after surgery on the basis of modified Odom's criteria. Excellent and Good were defined as a successful outcome.Results.Ninety-six supraclavicular scalenotomies without rib resection were performed on patients with post-traumatic NTOS. The most common intraoperative observation was the fibrous bands within the anterior scalene muscle in 86 cases (89.6%). The short-term outcome with patients’ subjective evaluation in 96 operations at 2 months after surgery showed a 96.9% success rate (Excellent+ Good). In 85 cases followed for more than 12 months after surgery, the success rate based on patients’ subjective evaluation at the last clinic follow-up appointment as a long-term outcome was 74.1%.Conclusion.In post-traumatic NTOS, it has been reported the arm and hand symptoms are due to pressure on the brachial plexus, which can stem from the swollen muscle following injuries and later from tightness of the scarred muscle. Considering this mechanism and our results, we concluded that supraclavicular scalenotomy and external neurolysis without rib resection made sense, as they were very effective and adequate to improve symptoms of NTOS.Level of Evidence: 5Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is caused by impingement of the neurovascular structures passing through the thoracic inlet. TOS is divided into three main categories: arterial, venous, and neurogenic. These subtypes occur due to compression of the nerves of the brachial plexus, the subclavian vein, and the subclavian artery by the scalene muscle, first rib, or fibrous band. 1
