Cervical radiculopathy, entrapment neuropathy, and thoracic outlet syndrome: how to differentiate? Invited submission from the Joint Section Meeting on Disorders of the Spine and Peripheral Nerves, March 2004.
[neuralgic amyotrophy]
The
common
diagnoses
of
cervical
radiculopathy
and
upper
-extremity
entrapment
neuropathies
can
at
times
be
difficult
to
differentiate
.
Additionally
,
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
is
often
diagnosed
when
,
in
fact
,
the
problem
is
radiculopathy
or
neuropathy
.
Another
source
of
confusion
,
especially
in
older
patients
,
is
neuralgic
amyotrophy
,
brachial
plexitis
,
or
the
Parsonage-
Turner
syndrome
.
The
differential
diagnosis
of
unilateral
arm
pain
,
weakness
,
and
/
or
sensory
loss
includes
all
of
these
problems
.
The
clinical
and
electrodiagnostic
features
of
each
are
discussed
as
an
aid
to
distinguishing
between
these
common
and
similar
entities
.
