EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY OF TRAUMATIC BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURIES

Abstract

We observed many aspects in common with those reported by other centers of excellence in Brazil such as: sex, age and mechanism of injury. However, some findings were different from most other epidemiological studies, namely: level of injury, time between the accident and the first appointment and the time between injury and surgery. <b><i>Level of evidence IV, case series.</i></b>
