Brachial neuritis following vaccination is an uncommon but clinically important presentation of severe shoulder and arm pain associated with globally reduced range of movement. It may be confused with the more common diagnoses of rotator cuff pathology, adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder), shoulder arthritis or cervical spondylosis. We present a case of acute brachial neuritis, which posed a clinical diagnostic challenge to emergency, acute medical and rheumatology clinicians.
疫苗接种后臂丛神经炎是一种罕见但临床上重要的表现,表现为严重的肩部和手臂疼痛,并伴有整体活动范围减小。它可能会与肩袖病变、粘连性关节囊炎(肩周炎)、肩关节关节炎或颈椎病等更常见的诊断相混淆。我们报告一例急性臂丛神经炎病例,该病例给急诊科、急性内科和风湿病科临床医生带来了临床诊断挑战。
