Case Reports[A complication of continuous blockade of the femoral nerve].
The continuous femoral nerve block is an effective method of analgesia after knee surgery. We report a case with acute compression syndrome of the femoral nerve caused by a subfascial hematoma. The symptoms developed 30 h after induction of the block. Immediate decompression brought pain relief and prevented permanent neurologic sequelae.

Comparative Study
Ilioinguinal nerve block in children. A comparison with caudal block for intra and postoperative analgesia.
Fifty-two boys undergoing herniotomy, orchidopexy or ligation of patent processus vaginalis under general anaesthesia had supplementary analgesia; 26 had a caudal epidural block and 26 an ilioinguinal block. Analgesia was assessed both during and after surgery. Ilioinguinal block provides a useful alternative to caudal block.
