Description
Redondano Oliveira, Nicoletti, and Marchetto report ten shoulder surgeries done without general anesthesia in a 2026 case series from Brazil. Patients got two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks plus sedation instead. Six had scope work and four had joint replacement. The team tracked any switch to general anesthesia, pain, recovery time, and problems over two weeks.
No patient needed a switch, and all blocks worked. Low blood pressure hit three patients, more often in joint replacement. Most went home the same day, and only one needed a strong pain drug in the first day. Two had brief hoarseness. All gave top marks for the care. The authors call for larger trials.
