Overview
Historical Perspective
Spontaneous axillary-subclavian vein thrombosis (ASVT) has been first described by Cruveilhier. Sir James Paget identified the subclavian vein thrombosis in one of his patients. Hughes created the term "Paget-Schroetter".

Surgery
Based on pathophysiology of the Paget-Schroetter disease, extrinsic compression and endothelial damage to the vein are among the underlying problems that should be addressed. While thrombolysis only treats acute symptoms, correction surgery decreases recurrence in patients with suspected subclavian vein entrapment. Correction surgery involves both thoracic outlet decompression and restoration of vein patency.
Primary Prevention
There are no established measures for the primary prevention of Paget-Schroetter disease.
Secondary Prevention
There are no established measures for the secondary prevention of Paget-Schroetter disease.
