The brachial and lumbosacral plexuses are complex neural structures that transmit sensory, motor, and autonomic information between the spinal cord and the extremities. Plexus disorders can be particularly disabling because lesions in the plexus usually affect large groups of nerve fibers originating from several spinal levels. Electrodiagnostic studies are often required to confirm a plexus lesion and determine the extent of injury and prognosis. Magnetic resonance is the imaging modality of choice for detecting intrinsic nerve abnormalities; recently, high-resolution ultrasound has emerged as an alternative method for dynamic evaluation and visualization of internal nerve architecture. Once a plexopathy is confirmed, the list of possible etiologies is relatively limited and includes traumatic and nontraumatic causes. Treatment relies on symptom management and physical rehabilitation unless a treatable underlying condition is found. Surgical approaches, including nerve grafts or tendon transfers, may improve limb function when spontaneous recovery is suboptimal.
