AbstractTransient femoral nerve palsy is a known complication associated with percutaneous ilioinguinal iliohypogastric nerve block. Excess volume and higher concentrations of local anesthetic have been implicated for transient femoral nerve palsy. We encountered partial iliac compartment block involving lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh and femoral nerve with a lower concentration (0.25%) of bupivacaine administered in the smallest indicated volume of 0.25 ml.kg-1 using a double-shot technique.
