1 Neurotmesis with suprascapular nerve severance and axillary neuropathy.
Neurotmesis with suprascapular nerve severance and axillary neuropathy. A 46-year-old man with a dirt bike injury. Coronal MIP 3D STIR SPACE (A) image shows complete disruption of the left C5 and C6 nerve roots (arrows), proximal to the formation of the upper trunk. Sagittal STIR (B) image shows an enlarged and hyperintense suprascapular nerve proximal to its disruption (large arrow). Also note hyperintense trunks of the brachial plexus (small arrows). Further lateral sagittal STIR (C) image shows denervation changes in the rotator cuff (small arrows) muscles (C5 and C6 distribution) and an abnormally hyperintense but continuous axillary nerve (large arrows).
