    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Traumatology
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Brachial plexus injuries are uncommon but complex due to intricate anatomy and associated injuries.
    • Effective management requires a thorough understanding of diagnostic principles and treatment options.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the anatomy and pathophysiology of brachial plexus injuries.
    • To discuss diagnostic methods and treatment strategies for traumatic brachial palsy.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical examination
    • Myelography
    • Axon reflex testing
    • Electrophysiologic studies

    Main Results:

    • Injuries can be open or closed, occurring supraclavicularly or infraclavicularly.

  • Lesions may involve nerve continuity, disruption, or root avulsion from the spinal cord.

    • Conclusions:

    • Physicians must periodically review management principles for brachial plexus injuries.
    • A comprehensive approach integrating clinical, imaging, and electrophysiologic data is essential for diagnosis and treatment planning.
