Abstract:
Inflammatory and immune-mediated lesions of the peripheral nerve plexuses—plexitides, in particular brachial plexitis or neuralgic amyotrophy (Parsonage–Turner syndrome)—are rare in children but represent a clinically significant condition. The disease usually begins with sudden, severe pain in the shoulder girdle and within a short time leads to muscle weakness, atrophy, and limitation of motor function. If the diagnosis is incorrect or delayed, the child’s daily activities and quality of life are markedly impaired, and the rehabilitation period may last for many months or even years.
