Obstetric Brachial Plexopathy (Erb's, Klumpke's Palsy).
Obstetric brachial plexopathy is an injury to the brachial plexus during childbirth, usually due to a stretch injury resulting from a difficult vaginal delivery.
The diagnosis is made clinically and depends on the nerve roots involved.
Treatment can be observational or surgical, depending on the nerve roots involved, the severity of the injury, and the location of the nerve injury.
