Summary Although the results of peripheral nerve repair have been greatly improved in the last years following the introduction of microsurgery and increased application of free autologous nerve transplants, the use of restorative neuroplasty in maxillofacial surgery has been limited. Prompted by the successful reports on modern neuroplasty, we have introduced the use of autologous nerve transplant to bridge lesions of various cranial nerves. Our experience is based on the treatment of traumatic and tumour-induced defects of the facial nerve, inferior alveolar nerve, accessory and lingual nerve. The anastomosis of nerve was accomplished exclusively under the surgical microscope and microsur…

ESRA19-0275 The efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) in patient undergoing thyroid surgery: a case report

2019

Background and aims The SCPB provides effective anesthesia and analgesia for the head and neck region. CPBs can be performed more safely and accurately under ultrasound guidance, which is used to easily identify various important landmarks. This case report was carried out to assess the efficacy of SCPB in reducing the intra and postoperative use of opioids/analgesics to control pain due to thyroidectomy. Methods Case report: 45-year-old woman, ASA II, underwent left hemithyroidectomy under general anesthesia (sevoflorane 2% and remifentanil TCI 0.7–1 ng/ml). Ultrasound-guided left superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) was performed using levobupivacaine 10 ml 0.25%. Pain score was measu…
