Abstract
Parsonage-Turner Syndrome is a rare idiopathic neurological condition characterized by acute shoulder pain, arm and shoulder atrophy, and muscle weakness. PTS is uncommon, has a wide range of clinical presentations, makes diagnosis difficult, and has no established course of treatment. Here, we present a case of a 6-year-old female diagnosed with bilateral brachial plexus pan plexopathy and PTS. Initial symptoms included acute shoulder pain and subsequent motor deficits in both arms, with no recognized mechanism of damage. The treatment difficulties and clinical complexity related to pediatric PTS are highlighted in this case report. To improve knowledge of the condition's various clinical manifestations, therapeutic responses, and long-term consequences, it is imperative to document such cases.
