Evaluation by Ultrasound Imaging of Local Anesthetic Spread to the Popliteal Fossa During an Adductor Canal Block (EchoCAdd)
Adductor canal block is an effective analgesic technique for major knee surgery. However, the saphenous nerve block is not sufficient to explain this block's efficiency. It has been shown that adductor canal block can spread to the tibial and fibular nerves through the adductor hiatus. However this diffusion's frequency has never been measured. The main objective of this study is to assess the frequency of the spread of the adductor canal block to the fibular and tibial nerves assessed by ultrasound observation at the popliteal fossa.
