title: [Sciatic nerve block by the anterior approach in surgery of the legs].
abstract: Forty-four sciatic nerve blocks were performed by the anterior route in combination with forty-four "3-in-1" blocks and seven lateral femoral cutaneous nerve blocks. The use of radioscopy for determining the anatomic injection points made the technique easier and safer. It was preferred for patients in whom general anaesthesia was not desirable for lower limb surgery.
