Lipoma compressing the brachial plexus in a patient with sarcoidosis: case report
Abstract
Lipomas associated with distal peripheral nerves are well recognized; however, those impinging on the brachial plexus are rare. We document a unique case of a sarcoidosis patient with an extraneural lipoma compressing the brachial plexus, and present a review of the current literature.
