Successful clavicle fracture surgery performed under selective supraclavicular nerve block using the new subclavian approach

Abstract Objectives Cervical nerves block cannot be performed on some patients because of the risk of phrenic nerve paralysis. To overcome this limitation, we discovered the site of selective only supraclavicular nerve block at the subclavian site. Case report We present the case of a 62-year-old wo...
