Omuz laksitesi zemininde gelişen brakiyal pleksus nöropatisi (stinger sendromu): Olgu sunumu

Year 2007, Volume: 41 Issue: 1, 74 - 79, 18.04.2007

Abstract

Brakiyal pleksusun traksiyon veya kompresyon yaralanmasına bağlı gelişen sık bir nöropati olan stinger sendromu genellikle sporcu genç erişkinlerde görülür ve etyolojisinde majör bir kontak travma bulunur. İki taraflı glenohumeral eklem laksitesi olan 11 yaşındaki erkek hasta, koşarken sol omuz ekstansiyonda iken, boynun karşı tarafa minimal lateral fleksiyonu ile duvara çarptıktan sonra sol omuzda ağrı, sol kolda uyuşukluk ve kuvvet kaybı yakınmalarıyla başvurdu. Hastanın sol omzunda, nötral rotasyonda humerus başının anteroinferior doğrultuda ciddi derecede pasif translokasyonu ve sulkus bulgusu vardı. Hastaya omuz laksitesi zemininde traksiyona bağlı brakiyal pleksus nöropatisi (stinger sendromu) tanısıyla omuz kol askısı verildi. İkinci haftadaki muayenesinde sağ deltoid, supraspinatus ve infraspinatus kaslarında atrofi saptanması üzerine aktif ve pasif harekete yönelik omuz egzersizlerine başlandı. Üç ay sonra yapılan kontrolde aktif eklem hareketleri açık ve kas kuvvetleri normal bulundu.

Brachial plexus neuropathy (stinger syndrome) occurring in a patient with shoulder laxity

Year 2007, Volume: 41 Issue: 1, 74 - 79, 18.04.2007

Abstract

The stinger syndrome is a common neuropathy caused by traction or compression of the brachial plexus. In general, it is seen in young adults involved in sport activities and a major contact trauma is the rule. An 11-year-old boy with bilateral glenohumeral joint laxity had pain in the left shoulder, numbness and decreased strength in the left arm that developed after striking against a wall while running, with the left shoulder in extension and the neck in minimal lateral flexion to the contralateral side. Physical examination showed extreme anteroinferior passive translocation of the humeral head in neutral rotation and a positive sulcus sign in the left shoulder. The diagnosis was made as brachial plexus neuropathy (stinger syndrome) resulting from traction trauma and shoulder joint laxity and a shoulder-arm brace was applied. After two weeks, atrophy was detected in the right deltoid, supraspinatus, and infraspinatus muscles, and active and passive motion exercises of the shoulder were initiated. At the end of three months, he achieved normal range of motion of the shoulder and muscle strength.
