    AbstractThe myelograms of 7 patients with traction injury of the brachial plexus are compared with the operation findings. It appears that not only the roentgenological sign of the "traumatic meningocele" but also other myelographic abnormalities are to be considered as indications of a nerve root lesion. These changes are demonstrated. The myelogram of a 6-months-old child showing a nerve root avulsion due to birth trauma is represented. Myelographic examination of each patient with posttraumatic brachial palsy should be performed as soon as possible. A sufficient myelographic diagnosis of the nerve root lesion can be achieved only in considering also the less impressive radiological signs.
