Fully illustrated and enhanced with accompanying video clips, this
comprehensive text presents the clinical evaluation and management
of brachial plexus injuries and reconstruction, both for adult
patients and birth injuries. Divided into two main sections, part
one covers adult brachial plexus injuries, discussing the relevant
anatomy and biology, epidemiology, and associated injuries. The
main focus, however, is on diagnosis - the clinical exam as well as
neurodiagnostic and radiographic evaluation - and surgical
management approaches and techniques, including nerve grafting and
transfers, tendon and muscle transfers, and joint fusion. Related
topics are presented in chapters on sensory reinnervation,
neuropathic pain management, the role of amputation and
prosthetics, and pre- and post-surgical therapy protocols. Brachial
plexus birth injury is described in part two, also focusing mainly
on diagnosis and management but with an emphasis on the fact that
babies are not small adults and special considerations are
warranted. This section concludes with chapters on the management
of late complications and long-term sequelae. A comprehensive
surgical text on brachial plexus injuries has not been previously
attempted. Filling a large gap in the literature, Operative
Brachial Plexus Surgery is the go-to resource for adult and birth
related brachial plexus reconstruction for orthopedic surgeons,
neurosurgeons, plastics surgeons, and their trainees.
