Effect of brachial plexus birth injury location on trabecular microstructure in the proximal humerus

Trabecular microstructure was characterized in the proximal humerus in murine models of preganglionic and postganglionic BPBI. The preganglionic injury group had detriments in trabecular bone (e.g., BMD) in the affected forelimb compared to sham and postganglionic injury, consistent with restricted growth in humeral head morphology observed in this group of rats previously.
