Abstract

Brachioradial pruritus (BRP) is a rare form of chronic dysesthesia characterized by persistent itching, burning, or tingling commonly involving the dorsolateral upper extremities. Although the exact pathophysiology remains unclear, the condition may be a manifestation of atypical cervical radiculopathy. The authors describe two patients with BRP, a 44-year-old female and a 51-year-old male, both of whom benefited from surgical intervention for atypical cervical radiculopathy, while also highlighting their presentation, diagnostic testing, treatment, and outcomes. The cases demonstrate the potential relationship between cervical spondylosis and BRP while examining the role of surgical intervention as a treatment option.
