    AbstractRegional anaesthesia involves its own risks of which five main categories appear to stand out: 1. Excessive indications, especially of epidural anaesthesia instead of nerve blocks or general anaesthesia. 2. Delayed use of vasopressive amines after excessive fluid infusion. 3. Toxicity of local drugs which can be largely avoided by slow injection. 4. Neurological complications of traumatic punctures, such as nerve root or dura mater injury. 5. Excessive complementary sedation.
