A multidisciplinary approach to the management of brachial plexus injuries: experience from the Mayo Clinic over 100 years
Abstract
A multidisciplinary brachial plexus clinic has been a relatively new concept, offering different surgical speciality perspectives on the treatment of brachial plexus injuries. The resulting collaborative effort has proven to be greater than the sum of its parts. In this review, the history, philosophy of care, development/implementation and impact of a creation of a multidisciplinary brachial plexus team at the Mayo Clinic are detailed.
Keywords: Multidisciplinary brachial plexus injury; philosophies of treatment.
