title: [Axillary block of the brachial plexus and flunitrazepam premedication in surgery of the upper limb (study of 1,500 cases)].
abstract: The authors report their experience of regional block using anaesthesia of the brachial plexus by the axillary approach. 1 500 axillary blocks have been done since 1976. They perfect their technology and report their results. Because of the innocuity of regional block and its simplicity, they use it in seventy per cent of superior limb acute or regular surgery.
