About
The Pecs block (pectoral nerves block) is an easy and reliable superficial block inspired by the infraclavicular block approach and the intercostal abdominis plane blocks . Many additives were used in combination with local anesthetics in Pecs block to prolong the postoperative analgesia (fentanyl, dexmedetomidine).
