Ultrasound Guided lateral Infra-trochanteric Sciatic Nerve Blockade for Proximal Tibial Surgery: A Novel Technique

Sciatic nerve blockade (SNB) can be performed at several point along its anatomic course. Proximal SNB techniques described include the classic Labat, sacral (Mansur), infragluteal (Raj), and anterior approches Distal SNB techniques include the mid-femoral, posterior and lateral popliteal and mid-tibial approaches. The anatomic region of the lower extramity to be anesthetixzed will determine the appropriate SNB technique to use for the operative procedure.
