Delayed primary repair of a kyrogenic spinal accessory nerve injury: a case report.
Clinical Orthopaedics and related Research 1997 March
The course of the accessory nerve through the posterior cervical triangle is superficial and in close juxtaposition to the posterior cervical lymph node chain. These anatomic features contribute to the common occurrence of kyrogenic injury to the accessory nerve. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of this injury often is delayed because the clinical presentation may mimic shoulder impingement or adhesive capsulitis. The authors present a case with a 15-year followup of a 48-year-old woman who underwent successful delayed primary repair of an accessory nerve injury after a lymph node biopsy. Electromyographic examination is recommended at 3 weeks after a suspected accessory nerve lesion, and if evidence of trapezial denervation is present, early surgical exploration is indicated because spontaneous recovery is rare.
