AbstractIn patients with mediastinal masses, regional anaesthesia may be used for peripheral procedures. We have found the superficial cervical plexus block, when used with midazolam as an amnestic and anxiolytic agent, to be safe, reliable and well-tolerated alternative to general anaesthesia in pediatric patients with mediastinal masses.
