We aim to report a
case with bilateral obstetric brachial plexus paralysis rarely seen after
cesarean section. A 28-month-old girl was admitted to our outpatient clinic
with weakness in both upper extremities. Shoulders were adducted and
internally rotated, elbows were extended with flexion fingers. The 37-year-old mother, fetal breech presentation, premature birth and
probably traction forces applied at birth were considered among the risk
factors. With this case,
it is emphasized that obstetric brachial plexus paralysis occurs rarely
bilateral and after cesarean section.
