Microsurgical technique in obstetric brachial plexus repair: a personal experience in 200 cases over 10 years

We present our personal operative technique in exposing and repairing obstetric brachial plexus (obp) lesions. This technical description of the operative procedure and the strategic choice for the neurotisations are analysed with special regards on the follow-up of these patients (always performed...

description We present our personal operative technique in exposing and repairing obstetric brachial plexus (obp) lesions. This technical description of the operative procedure and the strategic choice for the neurotisations are analysed with special regards on the follow-up of these patients (always performed by the surgeon), the histological quality of the proximal root stumps used for cable grafting, and the general reconstruction principles established in international workshops. We would like to encourage debate on these detailed considerations wherever they could affect the functional outcome.
