Clavipectoral fascia plane block in midshaft clavicle fractures: A cadaveric study
Authors' conclusion
The study reveals that the presence of a midshaft clavicular fracture does not significantly alter the diffusion pattern of the CPB-administered solution, maintaining a consistent distribution in both intact and fractured clavicle models.
