Abstract

The brachial plexus at supraclavicular division level is superior and lateral to the subclavian artery. Thus needle tip positions are already published in literature. However we report the brachial plexus divisions on the medial side of the subclavian artery. This might result in inadequate or failed blocks with landmark guided technique. Moreover with ultrasound needle tip needs to advance medial to artery making it more difficult in expert hands too. Ultrasound imaging of brachial plexus helps in identifying anamolous position of brachial plexus divisions.
Keywords- Brachial plexus divisions, Subclavian artery, Ultrasound
