The association pseudarthrosis of the clavicle and the thoracic outlet syndrome is rare. The author describe a case in a 64 years old man, found before embolic complications. Shoulder X-ray and artériography démonstrate the lesion. The etiopathogenic hypothesis are called up. In case of complication, the surgical treatment is made of osteo synthesis or partial or total resection of the clavicle, associated to a vascular repair in case of need. At long term the result is excellent.
