Abstract EN

Background: Diagnosis and treatment of thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) are controversial.

Surgical treatment has proved no excellent outcome.

The results of physical therapy are variable and even disappointing.

Objective: To find the results of a home-based physical therapy for improvement of TOS symptoms Method: 65 patients who had a clinical diagnosis of TOS were studied consecutively in a one year period (1998-1999) at the Iranian Hospital-Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

For the treatment, no anti-inflammatory medicine was reused to find out the exact effects of the home-based physical therapy.

The physical therapy and postural correction consisted of three main parts.

All patients learned the exercises in the orthopaedics clinic.

The results were studied based on a 10-grade pain rating scale
