Brachial artery injury

Brachial artery injury, which occurs in children, mainly causes ischemic contractures of the forearm and hand muscle groups. Once the brachial artery is completely obstructed, due to insufficient blood supply to the vascular network of the elbow joint, it is impossible to escape the ischemic necrosis of the forearm and distal muscle groups Fortunately, in order to avoid the sequelae of this permanent disability, various examination methods, including surgical incision and exploration, should be used, so as to avoid this serious consequence.
