Interventions

Procedure/Surgery : Patients were prepared in a sitting position, with the shoulder resting in a neutral position. The areas of injection were disinfected with povidone-iodine on a posterior aspect of
Pajunk, Geisingen, Germany) was inserted from the cranial end of the transducer. Using the in-plane technique, the needle was advanced until its tip entered the interfascial space between the deltoid
Taejoon Pharm, Seoul, Korea). After the contrast material dispersed in the interfascial space between the deltoid muscle and the teres minor muscle without intravascular uptake, 8 mL 2&#37
lidocaine was slowly injected with aspiration for every 2 mL injected. If vascular uptake was detected, the process was repeated after changing the needle position.
