Acute injuries of the brachial plexus are open or closed, and occur by compression, traction, sharp laceration, or missile injuries. Following initial resuscitation, a proper evaluation and treatment plan must be formulated. A review of the literature showed an obvious trend away from conservative treatment of many brachial plexus lesion toward an early, aggressive surgical approach to these injuries. An extensive literature review also provided the opportunity to devise a rational classification of brachial plexus injuries, which allows for a treatment regimen that reflects the trend of the recent literature.
臂丛神经的急性损伤分为开放性或闭合性，可由压迫、牵拉、锐器切割或火器伤引起。在进行初步复苏后，必须制定恰当的评估和治疗方案。文献回顾显示，对于许多臂丛神经损伤，明显出现了从保守治疗转向早期积极手术治疗的趋势。广泛的文献回顾还为设计合理的臂丛神经损伤分类提供了契机，这种分类能够形成一种反映近期文献趋势的治疗方案。
