Efficacy of superficial cervical plexus block versus cervical retrolaminar block both combined with auriculotemporal nerve block in parotid surgeries.

Authors

Abstract

Regional techniques in parotid surgeries include superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) and auriculotemporal nerve (ATN) block, which can be used as an anesthetic technique for awake parotidectomy. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of cervical retrolaminar block (RLB) as an alternative to SCPB both, used in combination with auriculotemporal nerve (ATN) block, in parotid surgery.
