    Abstract Background: Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS) is an inflammatory condition of the brachial plexus, with more than half of patients presenting a trigger, such as infection or vaccination. Our objective was to synthesize the clinical and paraclinical features, therapeutic responses, and outcomes of PTS post-COVID-19 vaccination.
    Methods: We systematically reviewed two databases (LitCOVID and the WHO database on COVID-19) up to January 2024 following a published protocol (OSF registries).
    Results: We included 59 cases. PTS occurred more frequently in males (61.1% mRNA group, 83.3% viral vector group). Patients in the mRNA group were younger (41.7% between 41 and 50 years vs. 38.9% between 61 and 70 years). Most cases had sudden pain within two weeks. Unilateral PTS was present in 94.4% of mRNA and all viral vector-vaccinated cases. Symptoms included pain (97.1% and 92.3%, respectively), usually followed within two weeks by motor deficits (97.2% and 94.1%, respectively), amyotrophy (30% and 81.8%, respectively), paresthesia (50% and 27.3%, respectively), and sensory loss (33.3% and 38.5%, respectively). Viral vector vaccine recipients had nerve involvement outside the brachial plexus. Ancillary investigations revealed CSF albuminocytological dissociation (33.3% and 100%, respectively) and ipsilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. Two PTS cases worsened after the second mRNA dose, and another recurred after influenza vaccination. One patient well tolerated the second dose of the viral vector vaccine, but symptoms reemerged in another.
    Conclusions: Current evidence suggests PTS may occur after all COVID-19 vaccine types, with some subgroup differences. Also, PTS might recur with subsequent similar or unrelated vaccines.

    Abstract INTRODUCTION: Parsonage-Turner syndrome is a rare disease characterized by acute and severe shoulder pain followed by upper extremity paralysis, that is severely underdiagnosed in clinical practice. The objective is to describe four illustrative clinical cases and provide a summary review of the topic. CASE REPORTS: Four patients (aged 56 to 84 years-old) diagnosed with Parsonage-Turner syndrome were followed up for functional recovery and patient satisfaction after conservative treatment. Despite presenting with typical sudden-onset pain in the shoulder region, followed by weakness in the shoulder/arm, all patients had delayed diagnosis. Only one patient reported a preceding viral infection, which is the most common trigger. Pain subsided after 3-8 days, but shoulder/arm weakness persisted. All patients recovered, totally or partially, with pain management and physical therapy. Recovery took 6-15 months and was monitored through clinical evaluation and electromyography. At last follow-up, all patients were satisfied. CONCLUSION: Parsonage-Turner syndrome has a higher incidence than previously assumed and is frequently underdiagnosed. It must be considered in the differential diagnosis of the painful shoulder, especially if muscle weakness is present. Despite being a self-limited condition, recovery is usually slow, and a prompt diagnosis is key for patient’s reassurance and starting adequate supportive treatment.

    Abstract Parsonage Turner syndrome (otherwise known as PTS, neuralgic amyotrophy or acute brachial neuritis) is a rare, but clinically significant cause of atraumatic shoulder girdle pain and weakness. Diagnosis is primarily clinical and can be challenging due to its heterogeneous presentation. A case of PTS following systemic infection from

    Abstract Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS), also referred to as idiopathic brachial plexopathy or neuralgic amyotrophy, is a rare disorder that classically presents with abrupt, patchy, unilateral shoulder pain followed by varying degrees of weakness and atrophy of the upper extremity musculature. PTS is a serious diagnosis that can result in irreversible atrophy with delayed diagnosis and treatment. Since there currently is no gold standard for diagnosis and the syndrome can present as many other possible pathologies, careful clinical examination and thorough review of relevant imaging and diagnostic studies are critical for proper diagnosis. Here, we present a case of PTS diagnosed in a 67-year-old male with extensive overlapping cervical and rotator cuff pathology following an apparent orthostatic episode with no known mechanism of injury. This case report not only adds to the literature regarding the importance of close examination and plausible etiologies of PTS but also emphasizes close collaboration among specialties to avoid misdiagnosis.

    Abstract Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA), also known as Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS), is a distinct idiopathic immune-mediated neuritis of the brachial plexus, characterized by sudden attacks of severe neuropathic pain usually in the shoulder and/or arm, followed by progressive neurologic deficits, including weakness, atrophy, and occasionally sensory abnormalities. Pathogenesis is assumed to be multifactorial, and several observations support the hypothesis of an immune-triggering event preceding PTS, most frequently infections. A literature review reveals a variety of clinical presentations and courses. Various microorganisms preceding PTS have been documented. The authors report a case of PTS related to cytomegalovirus infection with a review of the relevant literature. Special emphasis is placed on the most important infectious agents considered in the etiological list of PTS.
