Objective To identify the composition and characteristics of brachial plexus injuries through epidemiological study at five hospitals in Guangzhou. Methods From January 1992 to December 2001, 452 cases with brachial plexus injuries within 10-years period were reviewed retrospectively from 5 general hospitals in Guangzhou. The epidemiological features of the population were analyzed concerning the gender and age of the patients, and injury location. Results The patient ranged from 20 to 39 years old (64.6% ). The male to female ratio was 6:1. Most of patients (62.4%) were workers and peasants, and 11.7% had no occupation. Motorcycle accidents accounted for 45.1% and motor vehicle accidents 20.4%. There were 33.6% with whole brachial plexus nerve injury, 17.3% in upper and middle injury, 12.6% in upper root injury. Brachial plexus injury combined with multiple injury was 74.6%, among which 57% of multiple injury had head injuries. Conclusion Most brachial plexus injuries occur in young male people as a result of motorcycle and motor vehicle traffic accidents. Strengthening the prevention of traffic injuries of brachial plexus may help to decrease the incidence.
