Sub-Tenon’s anesthesia: an update
نویسنده
چکیده
Sub-Tenon's block has become the most common technique of orbital regional anesthesia in many centers. It provides effective anesthesia to the orbit with a lower incidence of sight-threatening complications than sharp needle techniques. This article will discuss the relevant anatomy, finer points of sub-Tenon's block technique, and the evidence supporting its safety.

متن کامل[III cranial nerve palsy and brainstem disfunction following retrobulbar anaesthesia].
There are currently various techniques of locoregional anaesthesia used in cataract surgery. One such technique, described by Knapp in 1884, is retrobulbar anaesthesia, which is currently applied in certain cases of outpatient eye surgery. At present, the most commonly used technique in the treatment of cataract is phacoemulsification with laser. This is very useful in cases of soft cataract, w...
متن کاملSub-Tenon’s local anaesthesia: the eVect of hyaluronidase
Aims—A prospective, randomised, double blind study was used to investigate the eVect of hyaluronidase on the quality of block achieved with sub-Tenon’s local anaesthesia. Methods—150 patients scheduled for elective cataract surgery were randomly allocated to either sub-Tenon’s block with 3 ml lignocaine 2%/adrenaline 1:200 000 alone or with the addition of 30 IU/ml of hyaluronidase. The blocks ...
متن کاملNecrotizing Scleritis Associated with 5-Fluorouracil and Sub-Tenon’s Block in Patient with Previous Trabeculectomy: A Case Report
Necrotizing scleritis is the most severe form of scleritis with a significant threat to vision and globe integrity. It can be infectious, surgically induced necrotizing scleritis (SINS) or systemic autoimmune associated. We report a case of necrotizing scleritis associated with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) at the site of sub tenon’s block in a patient with previous trabeculectomy. To our knowledge, th...
