[Thoracic outlet syndrome. Clinico-instrumental aspects of 36 cases].

The authors report their experience on 36 cases of thoracic tunnel syndrome. They deal with the nosographic arrangement of neurovascular syndromes of the upper limbs. Within the framework of the casuistics 13 patients were operated: the authors present clinical and E.M. Graphic criteria on the ground of which it was decided to operate. Results appear to be positive as to subjective symptomatology; they are less positive as to the objective one.

Neurophysiological examination of end-plate function in patients with lung cancer.

Twenty-eight patients affected by lung cancer were studied with neurophysiological and clinical examinations to show the prevalence of alteration of neuromuscular transmission. During repetitive stimulation at 20 Hz we found in 6 cases (22%) an increment (> 20%) and in 4 cases a decrement ( > 10%) of the size of muscle action potentials. In 15 patients (57%) we found low sensory action potential amplitude (< 11 uv). In 3 (11%) of the 6 cases with incremental response the overall examination suggested a disorder of neuromuscular junction such as Eaton-Lambert syndrome. Our results suggest that the peripheral nervous system involvement in patients affected by lung cancer is higher than usually estimated.
