Popis:	Congenital radial nerve palsy is a rare condition seen in newborns. It is thought to occur due to compression of upper arm against the pelvic rim in the intrauterine period. We report one such case of congenital radial nerve palsy in a preterm neonate with a classical ecchymotic skin lesion in the upper arm accompanying the wrist drop. The condition has a good prognosis with spontaneous recovery happening within 6 months in most cases.
