A 37-year-old female patient complained of weakness of left upper limb with pain and tingling after sudden dislodgement of central cannula. Electrodiagnostic studies showed evidence of brachial plexus lesion in the form of complete subacute axonal lesion affecting upper, middle trunks (neurotemesis), and partial subacute axonal lesion affecting lower trunk (axonotemesis). MRN revealed a coronal STIR-weighted image and b sagittal reconstruction STIR-weighted image. c, d Axial and coronal 3D FIESTA FAT SAT shows the left brachial plexus with increased thickness with mild perineural edema due to compression with ill-defined intermuscular edema related to the thoracic inlet (arrow)
