“…As we found in the current study, cholinergic synaptic transmission was impaired in APP -/-SCG, which is related to Horner's syndrome characterized by myosis, ptosis, enophthalmos, prolapse of the nictitating membrane and conjunctival and facial congestion (Viscasillas et al, 2013). As shown in Figure 8A, APP -/mice presented drooping of the one side eyelids randomly and visible white discoloration and inflammatory discharge around the eyelids.…”

“…This transient adverse event was described previously as a complication of paravertebral plexus block in a dog, 18 with resolution of clinical signs after drug absorption. We suggest that in this dog, the injected volume of ropivacaine (10 mL) was sufficient to diffuse to areas beyond the brachial plexus such as the stellate ganglion, producing the clinical signs (ptosis and miosis).…”

“…Although the animal in this report was young, without developed musculature, the local anesthetic application points were difficult to locate. Greater chances of blockade failure could lead to complications, such as intravenous injection, unilateral phrenic nerve palsy, laryngeal nerve palsy, intrathoracic injection, epidural or spinal anesthesia, and Horner's syndrome (VISCASILLAS et al, 2013).…”

“…Difficulties in inducing perineuronal anesthesia may lead to several clinical complications (VISCASILLAS et al, 2013). The success rate of the neuronal blockade can be increased with the use of a stimulator of the peripheral nerve, as it allows delicate positioning of the needle tip close to the nerve (IMBELLONI et al, 2001).…”
