Indirect and direct methods have been used to localize the stellate ganglion. Identifying the C6 and C7 transverse process can be a technical challenge for practitioners when performing an ultrasound-guided stellate ganglion block. Following the nerve roots from the interscalene plexus into the corresponding foramen can serve as a reconfirmation for identifying the C6 and C7 transverse process.

Intra-arterial drug administration is a rare but potentially dreadful condition which can result in ischemia and gangrene of the hand. In the present case we accidentally injected propofol in an anomalous radial artery during anesthesia induction. Serial ultrasound-guided stellate ganglion blocks were applied to salvage the limb of the patient by promoting arterial blood flow. This is probably the first reported case of accidental intra-arterial injection of propofol being managed with stellate ganglion block.
