Diagnostic performance of diffusion-weighted MR neurography as an adjunct to conventional MRI for the assessment of brachial plexus pathology

Robert M. Kwee et al.

Summary: The study found that DW MR neurography is a useful adjunct for assessing brachial plexus abnormalities, with relatively short interpretation times and high detection rates for most abnormalities.

The evaluation and management of neonatal brachial plexus palsy

Vibhuti Shah et al.

Summary: Neonatal brachial plexus palsy is a condition that presents at birth and can have long-term consequences. The extent of nerve injury at birth varies in symptoms, with regular clinical examinations being crucial for assessing recovery and predicting long-term outcomes. Collaboration between community providers and specialists is important for optimizing childhood outcomes.

Aberrant central plasticity underlying synchronous sensory phenomena in brachial plexus injuries after contralateral cervical seventh nerve transfer

Zeyu Cai et al.

Summary: Contralateral C7 nerve transfer can aid in motor and sensory recovery in TBPI, but synchronous sensation often persists postoperatively. Central plasticity may play a role in sensory recovery, with sensory functioning of the injured hand dominated by its ipsilateral SI and overlapping with the intact hand's representative area.

Summary: The study showed no significant differences in the efficacy of gadobenate dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA), gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA), and Gadoteric Acid Meglumine (GdDOTA) in imaging the brachial plexus with MRI.
