Abstract
In the case presented, we performed for the first time verification of compression of the subclavian artery by the scalenus anterior muscle, in scalenus syndrome, with the use of multispiral computerized tomography in the angiography regimen. Detailed description of the disease clinical picture is given, and indications and main steps of the operation (scalenotomy) are presented. A clear positive effect of the performed surgical treatment is demonstrated, as confirmed clinically (disappearance of symptoms of right hand ischemia, right brachial plexus compression and vertebral artery syndrome) and by data of functional investigations (ultrasound dopplerography and brainstem auditory evoked potentials).
