Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
10. Blood Clots
It is essential that blood continues to flow freely. If it is blocked for any reason then it can result in some very dangerous symptoms for the patient. When the blood is not able to flow freely then it can begin to coagulate, potentially causing blockages in vessels.
In cases of vascular thoracic outlet syndrome, any blood clots are likely to occur in the upper part of the body. They can be especially dangerous if they restrict the blood flow to and/or from the heart and lungs.
