The brachial plexus (plexus brachialis) is a somatic nerve plexus formed by intercommunications among the ventral rami (roots) of the lower 4 cervical nerves (C5-C8) and the first thoracic nerve (T1).
The 5 terminal branches of the brachial plexus are the musculocutaneous, median, ulnar, axillary, and radial nerves.
Brachial neuritis is a form of peripheral neuropathy that affects the chest, shoulder, arm and hand. Peripheral neuropathy is a disease characterized by pain or loss of function in the nerves that carry signals to and from the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system) to other parts of the body.

Erb's palsy is the most common type of brachial plexus palsy. It involves the upper nerves in the plexus. Palsy is another name for partial or complete loss of muscle function — muscle weakness or paralysis. Erb's palsy is also known as Erb-Duchenne paralysis.
What is brachial plexus palsy? A brachial plexus (BRAKE-ee-uhl PLEKS-uss) palsy happens when the nerves of the brachial plexus have been damaged. The brachial plexus is a set of nerves that control the muscles of the arm. Palsy means not being able to move muscles in an area (paralysis).
One or two of every 1,000 babies have this condition. It is often caused when an infant's neck is stretched to the side during a difficult delivery. Most infants with brachial plexus birth palsy will recover both movement and feeling in the affected arm, often with daily physical therapy exercises.
