BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy may be performed under cervical plexus block with local anesthetic supplementation by the surgeon as necessary during surgery. It is unclear, however, whether deep or superficial cervical plexus block offers the best operating conditions or patient satisfaction.

متن کاملSimultaneous Bilateral Carotid Endarterectomy under Cervical Plexus Blockade.
In patients with severe carotid artery stenosis who developed transient ischemic attack, carotid endarterectomy is one of the most effective treatments. In particular, in patients with contralateral carotid artery lesions, there is a risk of serious neurologic complications during the intra-operative period. Experienced staff can perform simultaneous bilateral carotid endarterectomy safely in c...
متن کاملCervical plexus block for carotid endarterectomy followed by general anesthesia for abdominal aortic surgery--a case report.
The aim of this clinical report is to describe the use of sequential regional and general anesthesia for concomitant carotid and abdominal aortic surgery. We performed, in a 70-year-old man, a cervical plexus block for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) followed immediately by general anesthesia for resection of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. This anesthetic approach provided adequate surgical conditi...
