Risk factors were hypermobility, cervical traumatism and profession. Neurological signs were predominant and positive provocation tests were found Adson [4S%], sonnette [62%], E.A.S.T. [51%]. Thoracic pain inaugurated the symptoms in 3 times pseudo-angina [2], dyspnea [1]. Radiological results were positive for cervical rib [8], apophysomegaly of C7 [25], clavicular traumatism [1].
