Brachial plexus birth injuries occur at a frequency of 1-2 per 1000 births. Many of these injuries spontaneously resolve. Should spontaneous recovery not occur within the first 4-6 months of life, the prognosis for attaining movement and function of the affected appendage is significantly impaired.

Obstetric Brachial Plexus Injuries
Scottish Medical Journal, 2004It is clear that OBPP will continue to be a challenge for the foreseeable future. Because it is a rare condition the best results occur in specialised units for the fairly small number of patients who do not make a full recovery within two to three months of birth. This figure varies from 10 to 80%, according to the literature.

Brachial plexus disease produces a gait disturbance that may mimic musculoskeletal disease. When evaluating a case with possible traumatic brachial plexus disease, one relies heavily on historical ...

Given the unique pathophysiology of ballistic penetrating trauma, time-sensitive management of vascular and bony stabilization must be balanced with a nuanced understanding of nerve injury and recovery in both space and time.
