We successfully performed breast surgery using pectoral nerve II block, transversus thoracic muscle plane block, and sedation with dexmedetomidine in a patient with achondroplasia. We found that the combination of peripheral nerve blocks is a useful option in patients who have difficulties with both general anesthesia and neuraxial anesthesia.
