TOC (more signs of how unknown we are)
 
this came from a PT office: (notice the use of TOC instead of TOS as it actually is)

I checked with our head therapist and she said that we have treated TOC but it is not a commonly diagnosed problem, so we have treated it on a limited basis. If you have an order for PT, we would be happy to see you.

The three most common types of thoracic outlet syndrome in our clinic is the scalenus anticus syndrome, the costoclavicular syndrome and the hyperabduction syndrome.]
