Article Abstract
The main anesthesiological problem in TEAC operations is the possibility of evaluating the degree of tolerance after carotid artery clamping. When facing this situation, some anesthesiologists prefer to administer general anesthesia, others prefer loco-regional anesthesia. On the basis of their background and experience, the Authors, from 1.1.1987 to 12.31.1988, have performed 142 nerve blocks of the superficial and the cervical plexus. The proposed technique is simple. No side effects are observed. Moreover it is gratifying for the surgeon and safe from risks for patients. Loco-regional anesthesia permits a close neurologic monitoring that is easily understandable and inexpensive. When performing this kind of surgery, this technique seems to be valid and effective.

Comparative the impact intraoperative phrenic nerve sacrifice on prognosis patients with thymoma.

Objectives: Complete removal of the tumor and surrounding tissue is the most important prognostic factor such as survival after surgery. When the tumor invades the phrenic nerve, the impact of intraoperative phrenic nerve sacrifice on the short- and long-term prognosis of patients is not clear. This study aims to explore the differences in prognosis between patients with malignant thymoma with and without phrenic nerve sacrifice during surgery, as well as analyze related factors.

Background: It is very well known that the supraclavicular nerve (SCN) which occupies the inferior part of the superficial cervical plexus basically originates from the ventral rami of C2-C4, then travels caudally into the investing layer of the deep cervical fascia (IL-DCF) alternatively termed the "prevertebral fascia."
Methods: This cadaveric study (a total of 6 soft-embalmed cadavers and bilateral dissections, i.e.

Mediastinal mass syndrome represents a major threat to respiratory and cardiovascular integrity, with difficult evidence-based risk stratification for interdisciplinary management. We conducted a narrative review concerning risk stratification and difficult airway management of patients presenting with a large mediastinal mass. This is supplemented by a case report illustrating our individual approach for a patient presenting with a subtotal tracheal stenosis due to a large cyst of the thyroid gland.

Eversion carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in awake patients is performed using cervical plexus blocks (CPBs) with or without carotid artery sheath infiltration (CASI) under ultrasound guidance. Although adequacy of anesthesia (AoA) guidance monitors nociception/antinociception balance, its impact on intraoperative analgesia quality and perioperative outcomes in awake CEA remains unexplored. Existing literature lacks evidence on whether AoA-guided anesthesia enhances clinical outcomes over standard techniques.

Aging disrupts multiple homeostatic processes, including autophagy, a cellular process for the recycling and degradation of defective cytoplasmic structures. Acute treatment with the autophagy inhibitor chloroquine blunts the maximal forces generated by the diaphragm muscle, but the mechanisms underlying neuromuscular dysfunction in old age remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that chloroquine treatment increases the presynaptic retention of the styryl dye FM 4-64 following high-frequency nerve stimulation, consistent with the accumulation of unprocessed bulk endosomes.
