Default Winged Scapula

Just wondering if anyone else with TOS also has a winged scapula? Apparently it can be caused by damage to the long thoracic nerve. I've heard of people developing it because of damage caused during TOS surgery, but not of people having it alongside TOS to begin with. The long thoracic nerve runs behind the brachial plexus, so I'm assuming the shoulder blade problem is caused by TOS, but I'm not sure.
