Management of brachial plexus injury in adults.

P Songcharoen1.   

Abstract

Brachial plexus injury in adults is commonly caused by motorcycle accidents. Surgical management consists of nerve repair and nerve grafting for extraforaminal nerve root or trunk injury, and of neurotization or nerve transfer for nerve roots avulsion. In general, the results regarding restoration of shoulder and elbow function are good but reinnervation of the forearm muscles is less than safisfactory in respect to restoration of hand function. Functioning free muscle transfer in combination with selective nerve transfer is a reasonable alternative surgical procedure. Key words: Brachial plexus injury; nerve repair; nerve graft; neurotization; functioning free muscle transfer.
