Abstract
This case report presents the clinical picture of a patient with brachial neuritis who was investigated and found to have infection with human parvovirus B19. The clinical presentations and prevalence of human parvovirus infection are discussed, as is the prognosis for brachial neuritis. It is recommended that viral serologic testing, including that for human parvovirus, be carried out in cases of brachial neuritis. (J Shoulder Elbow Surg 1993;2:321-3).
