Background: The aim of this study was to report our experience with subcutaneous defibrillator (S-ICD) implantation.
Methods: At our hospital, 7 procedures of S-ICD implantation were performed; 4 of these with ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) and 3 with usual local anesthesia followed by sedation.
Results: Surgical operations were not burdened with peri- and postprocedural complications, with only one event of limited hematoma of the thoracic wall.
