Transversal recording and analysis of investigations performed in patients referred for suspected thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS)
Patients will have recording on a database of all investigations that were eventually performed for the diagnosis or follow up of their disease, among which: * Characteristics (Age, Gender height, weight, ongoing treatment , * professional activity, sports activity, * Symptoms. * Forearm and finger photoplethysmography (PPG) during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb * Transcutaneous oxymetry (Tcpo2) recording * Standard questionnaires (MASC, DASH, FS36) * Doppler and ultrasound during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb * Angiography during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb * Electromyogram * Standard X-ray
