Brachial Plexus Surgery Experts Pune
We at Sancheti Hospital specialise in brachial plexus surgery to restore arm function, relieve pain, and improve movement after nerve injuries.
What is Brachial Plexus Surgery
The brachial plexus is a complex network of nerves that controls movement and sensation in the shoulder, arm, and hand. Damage to these nerves, often caused by trauma, accidents, or birth-related injuries, can lead to weakness, numbness, or even paralysis of the upper limb.
Brachial plexus surgery is performed to restore nerve function and improve limb movement. Depending on the extent of the injury, surgeons may recommend:
- Brachial plexus repair surgery – repairing or reconstructing damaged nerves.
- Brachial plexus injury surgery – addressing nerve injuries caused by trauma.
- Brachial plexus nerve transfer surgery – rerouting healthy nerves to restore lost function.
- Brachial plexus palsy surgery – performed in cases of birth palsy or severe nerve paralysis.
These advanced procedures can significantly improve strength, mobility, and sensation in the affected arm.
Benefits of Brachial Plexus Surgery
- Restores partial or complete arm movement.
- Improves sensation and hand function.
- Enhances quality of life by regaining independence.
- Prevents long-term complications like joint stiffness and muscle wasting.
- Provides hope for patients with severe injuries who have not improved with conservative treatments.
Limitations and Disadvantages
- Some swelling, soreness, or stiffness may persist for a few weeks.
- Small scar formation at the incision site.
- Rare risks include infection, nerve injury, or incomplete relief of symptoms.
- Requires dedicated post-operative physiotherapy for best results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the recovery time after brachial plexus surgery?
Nerve recovery is slow and may take 6 months to 2 years, depending on the severity of the injury and the type of surgery performed.
Is brachial plexus repair surgery always successful?
Success depends on the type and extent of nerve damage. Early intervention generally offers better outcomes.
What is brachial plexus nerve transfer surgery?
It is a technique where healthy nerves are redirected to restore movement in the paralyzed arm.
Can brachial plexus surgery restore full arm function?
In many cases, significant improvement is possible, but complete recovery may not always be achievable.
Do children with brachial plexus palsy need surgery?
Yes, if physiotherapy alone does not restore movement, brachial plexus palsy surgery may be required to improve function.
Will I need physiotherapy after surgery?
Absolutely. Physiotherapy is crucial for regaining strength, flexibility, and coordination after brachial plexus injury surgery.
Are there risks with brachial plexus surgery?
As with any surgery, risks include infection, scarring, or incomplete recovery. However, at Sancheti, risks are minimized with advanced microsurgical techniques.
How do I know if I need brachial plexus surgery?
If you have persistent weakness, numbness, or loss of function in the arm after an injury, you should consult a specialist for evaluation.
