There are a couple of other Roos studies on anatomical anomalies, the first much earlier, the later one from the 2004 Hand Clinic journal. There is also an Atasoy article from the 2004 Hand Clinic as well. What I am looking for is the early descriptions, and more up-to-date, of scalene anomalies, specifically scalene minimus, and how they can predispose to TOS, but are asymptomatic unless there is trauma to the neck. I would REALLY like how they attach with illustration and can you give me the moon, too?

I am also looking for a good description of appropriate history-taking and clinical exam and dx.

I have most of this info in bits and pieces from other authors found while surfing around the web, but it's not pulled together concisely from a few authorative voices as I would like.

I did find out the IME that said he didn't think I have or had TOS because I didn't have a long C-7 transverse process or a c-rib doesn't have a CLUE - the scalene minimus attaches at the C-7 and to the first rib, and often to the pleura as well, now figure mine was all wound through the plexus and under the vein on that journey But I really want more than the abstracts when I go in there on Monday - so can you help? Merci!
