Techniques anesthésiques utilisées en dermatologie chirurgicale

Abstract

Anaesthesia has to be carried-out prior to any dermatological surgery procedure. Local anaesthesia is the major anaesthetic method in dermatology. Topical anaesthesia, local infiltration and loco-regional anaesthesia of the face, fingers and toes as well as tumescent anaesthesia are performed by the operator. In some cases, other anaesthetic procedures may be useful: sedation, general anaesthesia. Nitrous oxygen analgesia may be a new approach in the future.
