Abstract

Combined peripheral nerve blocks can be used as an alternative anesthetic technique for lower limb amputations in high-riskpatients. The approach may vary according to the clinical condition of the patient. Presently described is the use of a combination of peripheral nerve blocks used for above-the-knee amputation in a high-risk patient: a sciatic nerve block with ananterior approach, a femoral nerve block, and a lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block.

Özet

Kombine periferik sinir blokları, yüksek riskli hastalarda alt ekstremite ampütasyonları için alternatif bir anestezi tekniği olarak kullanılabilir. Hastanın klinik durumuna bağlı olarak blok uygulamaları için farklı yaklaşımlar tercih edilebilmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda, yüksek riskli bir hastada diz üstü amputasyonu sırasında anterior yaklaşım ile siyatik sinir bloğu, femoral sinir bloğu ve lateral femoral kutanöz sinir bloklarından oluşan periferik sinir bloğu kombinasyonunun kullanımı bildirilmektedir.
