Parsonage-Turner Syndrome is an uncommon cause of shoulder pain.
Herein, we present the case of a male in his 40s, who was presented with a 3-month history of acute onset of intense shoulder pain, which decreased rapidly leaving behind a residual upper limb weakness. The diagnosis of Parsonage-Turner Syndrome following COVID-19 vaccination was made based on electroneuromyography and magnetic resonance imaging findings. The patient responded well to analgesics and rehabilitation.
A better knowledge of this disease and early recognition are crucial to prevent unnecessary tests and interventions.

在此，我们报告一例40多岁男性患者，其肩部剧痛急性发作3个月，疼痛迅速减轻，遗留上肢残余无力。根据肌电图和磁共振成像结果，诊断为新冠病毒疫苗接种后发生的Parsonage-Turner综合征。患者对镇痛药和康复治疗反应良好。
更好地了解这种疾病并早期识别对于避免不必要的检查和干预至关重要。
