Omuz artroplastisinde anterior yaklaşımla supraskapular sinir bloğu ile aksiller sinir bloğu
Abstract
Arthroscopic shoulder operations are associated with postoperative pain, which can lead to chronic pain if not treated effectively. The classic posterior approach for the suprascapular nerve is associated with higher technical failures, and it is a more painful procedure for the patients. We report a case of a 72-year-old male patient who underwent right shoulder arthroplasty. We performed ultrasound-guided suprascapular nerve block with an anterior approach, combined with an axillary nerve block, and provided effective analgesia.
