Introduction. Regional anesthesia techniques have grown exponentially in the last decades, and there is a growing number of patients who can benefit from anesthetic or analgesic peripheral nerve blocks.

The infraclavicular approach to the brachial plexus block is widely used in upper extremity surgery.
