Brief summary

Combining interscalene block with infraclavicular block for humerus surgery provides a unique surgical anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia.

Detailed description

Interscalene block provides effective surgical anaesthesia for shoulder and proximal arm surgery. However, sometimes it can be inadequate for distal arm surgery. Combining infraclavicular block with interscalene block may provide a successful surgical anaesthesia for humerus surgery.
