However, more recent studies suggest that these injuries may benefit from surgical intervention. The aims of this retrospective study were to (1) describe injury patterns and associated injuries of isolated, traumatic IBPIs, (2) evaluate the concordance of preoperative ultrasound and magnetic resonance neurography with surgical findings of patients who underwent surgical intervention for IBPIs, and (3) describe outcomes of surgical intervention for these injuries.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>A total of 148 patients who underwent surgical intervention for traumatic injury to the IBP by one of three hand/upper-extremity fellowship-trained surgeons from 1995 to 2021 were included.

Scapular fractures were associated with IBPI in 22% of patients. Isolated branch injuries were the most common (58.8%), of which isolated musculocutaneous nerve injury was the most frequent (40.6%). Preoperative ultrasound and magnetic resonance neurography were concordant with surgical findings in eight of nine and seven of nine patients, respectively.
