Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and radiation-induced brachial plexopathy are extremely debilitating conditions which can occur after treatment of malignancy. Unfortunately, the diagnosis can be elusive, and this dilemma is further compounded by the lack of efficacious therapeutics to prevent the onset of neurotoxicity before initiating chemotherapy or radiation or to treat these sequelae after treatment. However, microsurgical nerve decompression can provide these patients with a viable option to treat this complication.
