Serratus Anterior Plane Block for Procedural Anesthesia for Pigtail Tube Thoracostomy: A Case Series by Edward Lopez, Raghav Sahni, Maxwell Cooper, Michael Shalaby

“…Thus far, regional anesthesia prior to pigtail tube thoracostomy in the emergency department (ED) has not been well described; it offers promise in alleviating pain associated with this procedure. Due to its ability to anesthetize all or most of the structures associated with tube thoracostomy—skin, serratus anterior muscles, intercostal muscles, and the parietal pleura—the serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a potentially promising fascial plane block prior to pigtail tube thoracostomy. …”
