TI  - Brachial plexus involvement as the only expression of hereditary neuropathy with 
      liability to pressure palsies.
PG  - 1093-6
AB  - Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) is an 
      autosomal-dominant focal neuropathy characterized by recurrent entrapment 
      neuropathies. Single members of families with HNPP and brachial plexus 
      involvement have been reported previously. We describe a family with three 
      affected members and in which the only symptom of entrapment was recurrent 
      brachial plexopathy. The diagnosis of HNPP in this family was confirmed by both 
      neurophysiological methods and DNA analysis. The distinction between HNPP and 
      hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy is discussed.
