Abstract

Obstetric Brachial Plexus Palsy (OBPP) is one of the devastating complications of difficult or assisted deliveries. Brachial plexus palsy with upper root involvement most commonly affects the external rotators and abductors. Twenty percent of obstetrical brachial plexus palsies are bilateral and they represent a more severe condition. An eight-year-old girl patient with bilateral brachial plexus palsy was described and discussed in this report.

Özet

Doğumsal brakiyal pleksus felci, zor doğum sırasında brakiyal pleksusun traksiyon yaralanması sonucu meydana gelen bir komplikasyondur. En yaygın formu, eksternal rotator ve abduktorların etkilendiği üst kök lezyonlarıdır. Daha ağır bir klinik formda karşımıza çıkan bilateral lezyonlar, doğumsal brakiyal pleksus felçlerinin %20’sini teşkil eder. Bu yazıda bilateral brakiyal pleksus felci olan 8 yaşında bir kız anlatıldı ve tartışıldı.
