    This block is particularly useful in providing anesthesia and postoperative analgesia for surgery to the clavicle, shoulder, and arm. Advantages of this block include rapid blockade of the shoulder region, and relatively easily palpable anatomical landmarks. Disadvantages of this block include inadequate anesthesia in the distribution of the ...

  3. Neurectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurectomy

    As cutaneous nerves cover all areas of the skin, and any surgery which requires incisions may inadvertently cause injury or scarring, now entrapping a cutaneous nerve. [15] A common tradeoff when electing to a neurectomy is that numbness along the nerve distribution is expected.

  4. Nerve block - Wikipedia

    Nerve block or regional nerve blockade is any deliberate interruption of signals traveling along a nerve, often for the purpose of pain relief. Local anesthetic nerve block (sometimes referred to as simply "nerve block") is a short-term block, usually lasting hours or days, involving the injection of an anesthetic, a corticosteroid, and other agents onto or near a nerve.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraclavicular_nerves

    A supraclavicular nerve block is useful when performing surgery on the shoulder, anaesthetising a large area of skin. [5] The supraclavicular nerves are vulnerable during surgery on the clavicle, and must be identified early on in surgeries to reduce the risk of nerve injury and neuroma. [6]

  6. Axillary nerve palsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_nerve_palsy

    Axillary nerve palsy is a neurological condition in which the axillary (also called circumflex) nerve has been damaged by shoulder dislocation. It can cause weak deltoid and sensory loss below the shoulder. [1] Since this is a problem with just one nerve, it is a type of Peripheral neuropathy called mononeuropathy. [2]

  8. Anterior interosseous syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_interosseous_syndrome

    The anterior interosseous nerve is a branch of the median nerve, with a large sensory branch to the wrist bones, which arises just below the elbow. It passes distally, anteriorly along the interosseous membrane and innervates flexor pollicis longus, flexor digitorum profundus to index and middle finger as well as pronator quadratus, and supplies sensory feedback from the wrist bones, i.e. the ...

  9. Nerve compression syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_compression_syndrome

    Nerve compression syndrome, or compression neuropathy, or nerve entrapment syndrome, is a medical condition caused by chronic, direct pressure on a peripheral nerve. [1] It is known colloquially as a trapped nerve, though this may also refer to nerve root compression (by a herniated disc, for example).
