چکیده

Recent findings support the use of ultrasonographic guidance in pediatric regional anesthesia. This review article illustrates basic knowledge in physics of ultrasound and ultrasonographic appearance of neuronal structures, which are prerequisites for the safe application of this technique in daily clinical practice. A critical view on education and ethics in science should emphasize future developments in ultrasonography for pediatric regional anesthesia.

Ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block in a pediatric patient with acute hepatitis -A case report-

The interscalene brachial plexus block is not commonly used in pediatric regional anesthesia. The increasing popularity of ultrasound has allowed more anesthesiologists to perform regional anesthesia with high success rates in pediatric patients with the direct visualization of the target nerve and spread of local anesthetics. We present a case of interscalene brachial plexus block under ultras...
