    Abstract:
    Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (NTOS) encloses the whole set of clinical manifestations associated with the compression of the trunks of the brachial plexus and/or of the subclavian vessels as they cross the thoracic outlet (cervico-thoraco-brachial junction). It rarely affects children. We here report the case of a young girl treated for neurologic NTOS caused by supernumerary cervical rib. Le Syndrome du Défilé Thoraco-brachial (SDTB) correspond à l’ensemble des manifestations cliniques liées à la compression des troncs du plexus brachial et ou des vaisseaux sous-claviers lors de la traversée cervico-thoraco-brachiale. Les formes pédiatriques sont rares. Les auteurs rapportent le cas d’une jeune fille traitée pour SDTB neurologique, conséquence d’une côte cervicale surnuméraire.
