title: Neuralgic amyotrophy manifesting as anterior interosseous nerve palsy.
abstract: Neuralgic amyotrophy may present as a picture of anterior interosseous nerve palsy. In such a case, rather than a lesion of the nerve in the forearm, we offer indirect evidence of a lesion in the brachial plexus affecting discrete fiber bundles destined to form the anterior interosseous nerve.
