Usually it is the neuro type TOS with no clear cut cause that makes less than maximum post op outcome.

Or a less than stellar surgeon.
Or just plain bad luck.
Thanks to all you guys for useful replies I didn't realize with bony/vein issues the surgery is more straightforward so thanks for that. As for the neuro thing I can't remember fully but think a nerve is involved since my left hand is numb. Actually when I was first diagnosed they thought it was carpel tunnel until investigating further.

After surgery and healing will I be right to do push-ups etc do you guys think?
