Description of Brachial Plexus Surgery:
What is Brachial Plexus Surgery?
Brachial Plexus Surgery is performed to restore traumatic damage caused to the Brachial Plexus. The Brachial Plexus is a group of nerves that extends from the spine and proceeds to the neck, shoulders, armpit region, and into the arm. The damaged nerves are repaired by shifting and grafting a nerve that develops at the spine and moves to the Brachial Plexus.

About Brachial Plexus Surgery
Key facts to plan your treatment: how long it takes, your hospital stay, anaesthesia, risks and recovery.
Duration of surgery/treatment
The duration of the surgery ranges from 4 to 12 hours.
Days admitted
The patient needs to stay in the hospital for a couple of days after the surgery.
Anesthesia
General Anesthesia.
Recovery
The patient will take six to eight months to fully recover from the surgery.
It will take about two to three years for the patient’s strength to improve.
If the recovery is slower than the expected time, another EMG is required. This will confirm if the nerves are growing and restoring properly.
Risks
The following surgical complications are possible:

After care
Ensure that the following things are ready:

- Easy-to-remove medical tape

- The recovery may involve a little pain in some cases. However, medication is provided if there is pain.
- To prevent movement of the arm, the patient will have to use a sling on the arm. This will reduce pain as well.
- Engaging in light daily activities at home is encouraged.
- The patient should undergo physiotherapy after about two weeks from the day of the surgery.
