Sonoanatomy and Technique

This video tutorial discusses the sonoanatomy and technique of the pterygopalatine ganglion block (PPGB). This block is becoming very popular for surgery to the palate such as cleft palate repair, maxilla surgery such as orthognatic surgery, and nasal surgery such as FESS. It is also gaining popularity for treatment of the primary (vascular) headaches such as migraine, cluster headache and postdural puncture headache. If we understand the anatomy, this is absolutely not a daunting block as most may think.
