The article discusses the successful experience of using ultrasound imaging of the brachial plexus nerves to perform a supraclavicular block of the brachial plexus with an additional block of n. cutaneus brachii medialis and n. intercostobrachialis in a patient with severe vascular pathology with lack of sensitivity and movements in the hand. The authors describe this technique in detail.
