Brachial plexopathy is usually related to trauma like direct injury to the nerve and stretching injuries. Neurological complications following bee sting are uncommon. Here, we describe a rare case of acute brachial plexopathy as a neurological complication following bee sting. A23-year-old maleinitially presented with angioedema and anaphylactic shock one hour after a bee stung at his neck. Twenty four hours after the incidence, he presented with sudden onset of left upper limb weakness. Nerve conduction study and electromyography had shown evidence of left brachial plexopathy.
臂丛神经病通常与创伤有关,如神经直接损伤和伸展损伤。蜂蜇后的神经并发症并不常见。在这里,我们描述了一例罕见的急性臂丛神经病,这是蜂蜇后的一种神经并发症。一名 23 岁男性在颈部被蜂蜇后 1 小时出现血管性水肿和过敏性休克。发病后 24 小时,他突然出现左上肢无力。神经传导研究和肌电图显示左侧臂丛神经病的证据。
