BILATERAL SUPERFICIAL CERVICAL BLOCKS AS THE PRIMARY ANESTHETIC FOR THE PATIENT UNDERGOING AN EVACUATION OF NECK HEMATOMA AFTER PARATHYROID SURGERY.
Middle East Journal of Anesthesiology 2015 October
This is the case of an 80-year-old female who presented for evacuation of a neck hematoma on POD#3 after a parathyroidectomy. Her medical history included coronary artery disease with a drug-eluding stent, off aspirin for 2 weeks. She had a significant hematoma from the hyoid bone extending down to below the suprasternal notch. She reported hoarseness. The anesthesiology team provided regional anesthesia with bilateral superficial cervical blocks, supplemented with minimal sedation for patient compliance. The surgical team used no adjuvant local anesthetic. A deep exploration was performed and significant clot was evacuated. The patient went home safely from the PACU.
