Interpectoral, Pectoserratus and Serratus anterior plane blocks are relatively recent fascial plane blocks performed with ultrasound guidance to provide analgesia of the anterior thoracic wall. They have been mainly used in breast surgery and are both safe and easy to perform. This review will focus on the technique of ultrasound guided Interpectoral, Pectoserratus and Serratus anterior plane blocks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
