Brachial plexus injuries occur when a baby's neck is stretched during delivery. It more frequently occurs if the birth is complicated by a breech (bottom-first) delivery, the mother has a very long labor, the baby's shoulders are too wide to fit through the birth canal, or medical extraction equipment such as vacuums or forceps are used.
