Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
We report a 45 years patient who underwent PHILOS plating for right proximal humerus fracture under interscalene brachial plexus block. Contralateral symmetrical facial flushing extending to neck and upper thoracic region was observed 4 hours, after the brachial block, in PACU. Flushing resolved spontaneously within next 4 hours and no neurological deficit was observed. And no active management was required.
