“…The shoulder passive movements (involving the clavicle) let us perceive if there are movement restrictions or pain [55]. The clavicle is able not only to transmit the mechanical stresses laterally (sternum, scapula and chest), but also medially (to the soft tissue structures such as muscles, viscera and vascular-nervous brachial plexus) [61].…”

The present article comprehensively reviews the thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS), its etiology and assessment, with reference to the usual conservative treatment and surgical therapy, highlighting new definitions and reporting obsolete tests. The syndrome affects about 8% of the population, with higher prevalence in females, and rarely affects the children. Conservative, non-surgical treatment produces good results, and it becomes important to know which specific areas need to be treated. Currently, there is no rehabilitation scheme, either osteopathic or chiropractic, considered as a valid tool for a precise localization of the pathologic condition, probably due to the lack of a manual assessment process to evaluate bones and muscular components of the thoracic outlet. In this situation, the manual treatment performed is usually generic. The present article proposes a manual evaluation that can be used to identify the anatomical area which needs to be treated. This hypothesis of assessment should be carried out after the clinician has ruled out the necessity of surgery with instrumental examinations.

Introduction Clavicle fractures are among the most common fractures. Nonunion fracture of the clavicle has traditionally been treated with autograft from the iliac crest, although it has been proposed that distal clavicle autograft would have less morbidities associated. Case Report Patient presented with a left midshaft clavicle fracture with broken hardware from previous open reduction internal fixation (ORIF). This was treated with removal of broken hardware, revision ORIF, and autograft bone from distal clavicle. Healing was augmented with bone marrow aspirate from the ipsilateral proximal humerus as well as with BioBrace (CONMED Corporation, Largo, FL) collagen strips to reestablish periosteal sleeve and retain bone graft material. Conclusion Distal clavicle autograft augmented with BioBrace is presented as a novel method to treat nonunion clavicle fracture and may be associated with less morbidities.
