AbstractTwenty five adults and children with fractured shaft of femur were given femoral nerve block for pain relief. The block was found to be useful for purposes of transportation and immobilization. The pain relief was complete if the fracture site was in the middle third of the femoral shaft. The block is easy, safe, economical and most useful in emergency and poor risk patients.
