Value of shoulder US compared to MRI in infants with obstetric brachial plexus paralysis

Abstract

Our results indicate that US with dynamic evaluation is a good alternative for MRI in assessment of glenohumeral instability in infants with BPBI, since it is highly accurate and specific, and quantitative measurements used for glenohumeral instability were comparable to MRI. US can be used as a screening method to assess glenohumeral instability in infants with BPBI.
