What is the difference between Thoracic outlet syndrome and Carpal tunnel syndrome?
Thoracic outlet syndrome is due to a compression of nerves or arteries at the brachial plexus, and carpal tunnel syndrome is due to nerve compression at the wrist.
Which plexus has the primary responsibility for innervating the deltoid?
The axillary nerve, which arises from the brachial plexus, is primarily responsible for innervating the deltoid muscle. It provides motor innervation to the deltoid muscle, controlling its function of shoulder abduction.
What are the symptoms and treatment options for brachial plexus compression syndrome?
Brachial plexus compression syndrome can cause symptoms like pain, weakness, and numbness in the arm and hand. Treatment options may include physical therapy, medication, and in severe cases, surgery to relieve the compression on the nerves.
The median nerve is a member of which nerve plexus?
The median nerve is a member of the brachial plexus. It is formed by contributions from the lateral and medial cords of the brachial plexus, primarily from spinal nerve roots C6, C7, C8, and T1.

What nerve isn't a part of the brachial plexus?
The phrenic nerve is not a part of the brachial plexus. It originates from the cervical spinal nerves (C3-C5) and is primarily responsible for innervating the diaphragm, facilitating respiration. In contrast, the brachial plexus is a network of nerves that supplies the upper limb, formed from the anterior rami of spinal nerves C5 to T1.
What is the cpt code for thoracic outlet syndrome?
Perhaps 64722 for decompression of the brachial plexus and 21615 for first rib resection.
What is the plexus supplying the arm?
Brachial plexus (C5-T1)
Which cord of the brachial plexus gives the radial nerve?
The radial nerve is derived from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, which is formed by the fusion of the posterior divisions of the upper, middle, and lower trunks of the brachial plexus.
What nerve runs along the left side of the right thumb?
The median nerve is a nerve in humans and other animals. It is in the upper limb. It is one of the five main nerves originating from the brachial plexus.The median nerve is formed from parts of the medial and lateral cords of the brachial plexus, and continues down the arm to enter the forearm with the brachial artery.It originates from the brachial plexus with roots from C5, C6, C7, C8, & T1.The median nerve is the only nerve that passes through the carpal tunnel. Carpal tunnel syndrome is the disability that results from the median nerve being pressed in the carpal tunnel.
What is the nerve plexus that supplies the muscles of the upper extremity?
The brachial plexus.
