To a block of a $K$-interior $H$-algebra we associate a group extension, and we prove that this extension is isomorphic to an extension associated to a block given by the Brauer homomorphism. This may be regarded as a generalization and an alternative treatment of Dade's results "Block extensions" Section 12. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1112.0135v1
