Paralysis
Complete loss of muscular movement
Paresis
Movement can be performed, but it’s weak (incomplete paralysis)
Anesthesia
Partial or complete loss of sensation with or without consciousness
Paresthesia
Loss of cutaneous sensation
Err-Duchenne Palsy
Most common injury to plexus
C5/C6 damage (increase angle between neck and shoulder)
Symptoms of Erb-Duchenne Palsy
Greatly disabled shoulder movements
Functional hand and digit movements
Klumpke’s Palsy
C8/T1
Forceful abduction of humerus at shoulder joint
Symptoms of Klumpke’s
Problems with hand and digit movements
Loss of sensation at C8/T1 Dermatome levels
Cervical ribs
Longer than normal transverse process of cervical vertebrae
Compression of cords of brachial plexus
Cords are compressed or impinged, resulting in paresthesia, erythema, and possible hand or digit weakness
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS)
Both compression of cords of brachial plexus and axillary artery
Symptoms both neurological and vascular
Axillary artery
Continuation of subclavian artery
Becomes brachial artery in humerus
6 branches of axillary artery
Superior thoracic Thoracoacromial Lateral thoracic Subscapular Anterior and Posterior Humeral Circumflex
Superior thoracic artery
Supplies pectoralis major and minor, subclavius, wall of thorax
Thoracoacromial artery
Divides into: Acromial Pectoral Clavicular Deltoid
Lateral thoracic artery
Supplies serratus anterior, pectoralis major and minor, mammary glands, intercostal muscles
Subscapular artery
Largest branch
Divides into:
1. Thoracodorsal - latissimus dorsi and subscapularis muscles
2. Circumflex scapular- supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres major and minor, triceps Brachii, part of deltoid
Anterior and Posterior Humeral Circumflex
Supply deltoid, shoulder joint, teres muscles, proximal part of humerus

Filter lymph fluid
Produce lymphocytes- destroy bacteria, viruses, cancer cells
