Parsonage Turner Syndrome: A Rare Syndrome following Trauma or Post Vaccination

V P Jerath*

Parsonage turner syndrome also known as idiopathic brachial plexopathy or neuralogic amyotrophy is a rarer disease usually involving the left shoulder girdle with acute pain and sometimes even right, but rarely both, while in the case presented, both the shoulder girdles were involved and it didn’t start with acute sholder pain as described in literature. The diagnosis is often missed despite liberally done investigations, only one out of 15 superspecalists could diagnose it. It could be post-infectious, post-operative, post-trumatic and post-vaccianation.
