Overview
Common causes of Paget-Schroetter disease include a repetitious activity of upper extremity, hypertrophied scalenus anterior muscle, presence of osseous exostosis, congenital deformities, and major vein catheterization.

Risk calculators and risk factors for Paget-Schroetter disease causes |
Common causes of Paget-Schroetter disease include:
- Repetitious activity of upper extremity including hyper-abduction, extension and/or external rotation.
- Restricted space around the Subclavian vein or Axillary vein which further augments the compression:
- Hypertrophied Scalenus Anterior or Subclavius muscle
- Increased bulk of muscles like Pectoralis minor and Subscapularis muscles
- Presence of osseous exostosis or fibrous bands
- Congenital or post-trauma bone deformities
- Iatrogenic causes like major vein catheterisation[1]
