SAMPLE QUESTION

A 22-year-old man falls from a motorcycle, forcibly separating his head from his right shoulder. He has weakness of shoulder abduction and external rotation, elbow flexion, and forearm supination. Sensation over the lateral shoulder and lateral forearm is reduced. Wrist and finger movements are largely preserved.

Which plexus structure most directly accounts for deficits spanning these proximal motor and sensory nerves?
