Abstract
Brachial Plexus Injuries result from a variety of causative mechanisms. They often present in a polytraumatic setting, and as such there is often a delay in their diagnosis and treatment. An understanding of the anatomy of the Brachial Plexus, and associated clinical pictures associated with injury, allows for early diagnosis and treatment. This review will consider the specific features of Brachial Plexus injuries relating to incidence, anatomy, mechanisms of injury, clinical presentation, and diagnostic evaluation.
