Background: The clavipectoral fascia plane block was introduced by Dr. Luis Valdes in a symposium at the 2017 European Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Therapy Con¬gress. Case: Clavipectoral plane block (CPB) with intravenous sedation provided surgical anesthe¬sia and analgesia in a 39-yearold male patient with a right midshaft clavicle fracture. This in-plane technique was used to deposit 30 ml of a local anesthesia mixture between the clavipectoral fascia and periosteum on both the medial and lateral sides of the fracture line. Conclusions: Excellent anesthesia and analgesia for up to 16 h post-block were provided by CPB during the clavicle surgery. Recent Publications: 1. Rivera AS, Lam HY, Macalino JU.
