Die Anatomie der seitlichen Halsregion mit besonderer Berücksichtigung des Thoracic-outlet-Syndroms

Zusammenfassung

Die Anatomie der seitlichen Halsregion und der zum Arm ziehenden Leitungsbahnen wird detailliert beschrieben, wobei besonders auf die drei topographischen Engstellen, an denen das neurovaskuläre Bündel komprimiert werden kann, Wert gelegt wird. Die anatomischen Varianten, die ein Thoracic-outlet-Syndrom (TOS) erzeugen können, werden detailliert geschildert.

Abstract

The anatomy of the lateral cervical region is described and revisited. The three topographical regions where the neurovascular bundle can be easily compressed by surrounding structures are highlighted. Furthermore, the paper focuses on the anatomical variations which are able to produce a thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS).

Thoracic-outlet-Syndrom - Halsrippe - Anatomie der lateralen Halsregion - M. scalenus minimus - Bandvarianten - Plexus bronchialis - A. subclavia - V. subclavia

Thoracic outlet syndrome - cervical rib - anatomy of lateral cervical region - scalenus minimus muscle - abnormal fibrous bands - plexus brachialis - subclavian artery - subclavian vein
