Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) Expert Witnesses

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) occurs when nerves or blood vessels passing through the thoracic outlet become compressed. The condition can involve the brachial plexus, subclavian vein or subclavian artery.

Cases involving thoracic outlet syndrome can raise complex medico-legal questions. These may relate to diagnosis, vascular or neurological assessment, imaging, clinical decision-making, surgical procedures and subsequent outcomes.

Our vascular expert witnesses can provide independent, evidence-based medico-legal opinions and reports. Experts may review medical records, imaging and procedural documentation. They can provide an opinion on relevant matters within their specialist area of expertise.
