Brachial plexus injury during central venous catheter insertion is uncommon. Understanding the anatomy and the relationship between the brachial plexus and the neck veins and arteries is highly important. The brachial plexus, stellate ganglion, vagus, accessory, hypoglossal and phrenic nerves are all closely associated with the internal jugular vein ...

Ultrasound imaging of brachial plexus trauma in gunshot injury

Trauma, 2011
Brachial Plexus Injuries result from a variety of causative mechanisms. They often present in a polytraumatic setting, and as such there is often a delay in their diagnosis and treatment. An understanding of the anatomy of the Brachial Plexus, and associated clinical pictures associated with injury, allows for early diagnosis and treatment.
