Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Clavipectoral Plane Block and Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block Combination in Clavicle Surgeries: A Report of 10 Cases

This case series included 10 patients who underwent clavicular fracture surgery under general anesthesia. A novel analgesic approach combining 2 distinct nerve block techniques—serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) and clavipectoral plane block (CPPB)—was used for postoperative pain management. SPSIPB provided sensory blockade for the innervation of the clavicular skin, whereas CPPB targeted the clavipectoral fascia. The combination of SPSIPB and CPPB demonstrated variable efficacy in controlling postoperative pain. Future studies may explore potential improvements through dosage optimization, the use of adjuvants, or targeting higher anatomical levels.
