Horner’s syndrome after supraclavicular continuous nerve block through catheter - A rare case report
##plugins.themes.academic_pro.article.main##
Abstract
Horner’s syndrome results from paralysis of the ipsilateral sympathetic cervical chain (stellate ganglion) caused by surgery, drugs (mainly high concentrations of local anesthetics), local compression (hematoma or tumor), or inadequate perioperative positioning of the patient. It occurs in 100% of the patients with an interscalene block of the brachial plexus and can also occur in patients with other types of supraclavicular blocks.
Keywords: Horner’s syndrome, ipsilateral sympathetic, cervical chain
