Brachial Plexus injuries can occur during the delivery of new-borns, when after the delivery of the head, the anterior shoulder of the infant cannot pass below the pubic symphysis without manipulation. This manipulation can cause the baby's shoulder to stretch, which can damage the brachial plexus to varying degrees.
Injuries to the brachial plexus are increasingly common in road traffic accidents. The most common cause is fall from two-wheeler. Most accident victims are male in the age group of 18-35 years. These injuries are notorious because it causes paralysis of the affected upper limb. This affects the learning and earning capabilities of the victims.
Brachial plexus is a network of 5 nerves that emerge from the spinal cord in the neck on both sides and supply the muscles of the upper limb.
Injuries to the brachial plexus are increasingly common in road traffic accidents. The most common cause is fall from two-wheeler. Most accident victims are male in the age group of 18-35 years. These injuries are notorious because it causes paralysis of the affected upper limb. This affects the learning and earning capabilities of the victims.
The brachial plexus can be injured even in a newborn during normal delivery when baby is large, and force needs to be applied. This also leads to varying degrees of paralysis in affected upper limb. Majority of the cases may recover spontaneously but few cases require surgical treatment.
There is a ray of hope for all victims who have lost functions in their upper limbs due to internal nerve damage. Nerve reconstruction surgery offers the only hope of restoration of some of the lost functions in cases where spontaneous recovery does not occur. Results are always better when surgery is performed at an earlier stage.
These nerves can be damaged by stretching, pressure or cutting.
Nerve injuries can stop signals to and from the brain, preventing the muscles of the arm and hand from working properly, and causing loss of feeling in the area.
Many adult injuries will not recover on their own, and early evaluation by physicians who have experience treating these problems is essential.
Open and penetrating injuries should be operated immediately.
The patient must do several things to keep up muscle activity and prevent the joints from getting stiff.
Factors that may affect results after a brachial plexus injury include patient age and the type, severity and location of the injury, duration between injury and surgery.
We have latest technological equipment & facilities that helps to get you the best analysis, treatment, recovery and result post operation/surgery.
