Birth Brachial plexus injury continues to remain a problem despite significant care from obstetricians to prevent it. Many children show spontaneous recovery but a significant proportion do not have adequate recovery. This review article discusses, etiology, assessment, investigations and overall strategy to treat the condition. Surgical strategy consists of primary intraplexal repair as the standard of care but of late the distal nerve transfers used in adult plexus injuries are increasingly being used in infants too. We discuss the history, current usage and pros and cons of distal nerve transfers, the usage of Botulinum Toxin and finally given an overall algorithm for the management.
