| Our patient has paralysis of the axillaris nerve with total denervation of the deltoid, with no hope of re-innervation. |
| Electrophysiological examination showed evidence of chronic partial denervation and reinnervation only in the upper limb segments. |
| A muscle biopsy confirmed neuropathic changes in a pattern consistent with denervation. |
| Additional evidence for ongoing denervation of UA muscle in OSA is provided by the significant increase in sarcolemmal N-CAM staining. |
| For cases where the etiology cannot be determined, ilio-inguinal nerve block or microsurgical denervation may relieve the pain. |
| Muscles biopsies also showed scattered atrophy consistent with the process of denervation. |
