AbstractA perivascular axillary plexus block was performed to 87 patients scheduled for orthopedic surgery of hand or arm using an electric nerve stimulator. A catheter was inserted for the postoperative pain control. The success rate was of 90.8% (79 cases); 65 patients (74.7%) presented a complete motor block. Complications were: arterial puncture (3), difficulty in inserting catheter (3), injection out of the sheath (1), pain at the electric stimulation (3). No allergic reactions nor neurologic complications were founded during a year of posterior control.
