Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Clavipectoral Plane Block and Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block Combination in Clavicle Surgeries: A Report of 10 Cases.

This case series included 10 patients who underwent clavicular fracture surgery under general anesthesia. A novel analgesic approach combining 2 distinct nerve block techniques-serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) and clavipectoral plane block (CPPB)-was used for postoperative pain management. SPSIPB provided sensory blockade for the innervation of the clavicular skin, whereas CPPB targeted the clavipectoral fascia.

Article Synopsis
- In emergency departments, there's an increasing reliance on ultrasound-guided nerve blocks (USGNBs) as an alternative to opioids for acute pain management, but limited research has been conducted on their effectiveness when performed by emergency medicine practitioners.
- A study at a tertiary care hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 analyzed 274 nerve blocks, measuring patient pain before and after the procedure and considering factors like block type and complications.
- Results showed significant pain reduction, averaging a decrease of 2.9 points after 15 minutes and 5.8 after 30 minutes, with common blocks being the femoral nerve and fascia iliaca, while some complications were noted.
Novel muscular anomaly along the iliac crest: Innervation from the superior cluneal nerves and topographical relationship to the thoracolumbar fascia.

Aberrant muscle bundles of approximately 10 cm in length, running subcutaneously from the posterior surface of sacrum to the iliac crest, were found on both sides of three males among 93 cadavers of anatomical courses for medical students. Since no precedent of this anomaly has been described in the literature, we present its morphology and discuss the significance of this muscle. This muscle originated from the tendinous fibers of the superficial-most layer of the sacral part of thoracolumbar fascia, became muscularized near the posterior superior iliac spine, passed over the origins of the gluteus maximus and medius, and inserted on the iliac crest.

BACKGROUND Necrotizing fasciitis is an aggressive type of skin and soft tissue infection that results in necrosis of subcutaneous tissues, including muscle and fascia. Mixed bacteria, including gas-forming organisms, are usually identified. This report describes a 55-year-old male diabetic patient with herpes zoster involving the thoracic dermatomes complicated by skin infection, necrotizing fasciitis, chest wall abscess, and sepsis.

Introduction: The need for a standardized core curriculum in regional anesthesia has become essential, particularly with the integration of ultrasound revolutionizing and exponentially increasing clinical practice and possibilities. In fact, numerous novel techniques, often overlapping, can confuse practitioners. This study aims to establish a core curriculum for upper limb, lower limb, paraspinal and fascial plane blocks for residency training, addressing potential educational gaps caused by the multitude of techniques, through a Delphi consensus process involving recognized Italian regional anesthesia experts.
