Abstract
(Abstracted from BJOG 2023;130:70–77) The incidence of brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) varies from 0.4 to 3.8 per 1000 vaginal births. It is a complication caused by traction to the cervical and thoracic nerve roots that can lead to decreased strength, complete paralysis, or limited range of motion in the affected limb in the first year of life.
