[The popliteo-femoral block, a rarely used form of regional anesthesia. With special reference to the use of peripheral nerve stimulators].
Blockade of the sciatic nerve in the fossa poplitea is a rarely used form of regional anaesthesia. A new method of identification of the tibial and peroneal nerve and their blockade in combination with blockade of the femoral nerve using a peripheral nerve stimulator, is described. Results in 300 patients during a 12 month period are described and discussed.
