ABSTRACT
CASE A 15-year-old right-hand-dominant adolescent girl presented with a nondisplaced first rib fracture and evidence of mesoacromion. She reported radiating numbness, pain, temperature change, and paresthesia in her left arm. An MRI revealed a first rib fracture along with brachial plexus and scalene musculature inflammation. Follow-up radiographs demonstrated bilateral rib anomalies during routine comparison views. CONCLUSION:
Congenital pseudarthrosis of the first rib occurs but is not well documented in the literature. This case report describes a case of congenital bilateral first rib pseudarthrosis with associated thoracic outlet syndrome symptoms in a competitive female softball athlete.
