ABSTRACT
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) often necessitates surgical intervention to alleviate neurovascular bundle compression, which can result in severe postoperative pain. The myriad of surgical techniques available for TOS treatment, the intricate involvement of diverse sensory pathways, and the limited literature on effective analgesic methods for these specific cases underscore the need for successful approaches. This report introduces an efficacious multimodal analgesic strategy that incorporates the erector spinae plane (ESP) block to enhance postoperative pain management after a supraclavicular surgical approach. By combining this fascial block with a comprehensive rationale for its implementation, this case offers valuable insights into improving the postoperative care of TOS patients, ultimately aiming to enhance their comfort and recovery.
