Summary

A subclavicular hematoma caused brachial plexus compression, mimicking carpal tunnel syndrome in a patient on anticoagulants. This case highlights the importance of differential diagnosis for neuropathic pain.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common cause of neuropathic pain.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with symptoms suggestive of carpal tunnel syndrome.
  • Initial assessment revealed atypical features requiring further investigation.

Findings:

  • The patient's painful syndrome resulted from brachial plexus compression.
  • This compression was caused by a subclavicular hematoma in a patient on anticoagulant therapy.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the necessity of considering differential diagnoses beyond carpal tunnel syndrome.
  • Prompt identification of underlying causes like hematoma-induced nerve compression is vital for appropriate management.
