MAGNETIC RESONANCE MYELOGRAPHY IN BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURY

Magnetic resonance myelography in brachial plexus injury.

We used magnetic resonance (MR) myelography in ten patients with injuries to the brachial plexus and compared the findings with those obtained by conventional myelography and postmyelographic CT (CTM). In the presence of complete nerve-root avulsion (seven cases), a post-traumatic meningocele was detected by MR myelography. In injuries to the upper roots (three cases) MR myelography showed abno...

Myelography in the diagnosis and prognosis of brachial plexus injuries.

Diagram of a transverse section of the neck at the level of C.6, to demonstrate the origin and the course of the posterior branches of the spinal nerves. On the right side is shown intraforaminal avulsion of the spinal root. The electromyograph of the deep posterior neck muscles will show fibrillation potentials: an unfavourable prognosis. On the left side is shown extraforaminal damage of the ...

Obstetric brachial plexus injury

OBJECTIVES To assess the basic knowledge on obstetric brachial plexus injury among obstetricians, pediatricians, and physio-/occupational therapists in major hospitals in Riyadh.  We aimed to identify if inadequate knowledge is the reason behind delayed referrals to the Hand Clinic. Methods: This is a cross-sectional questionnaire-based study  conducted at 5 major hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Ara...
