Sensory Supply Areas of the Lumbosacral Plexus

Psoas Compartment Block(Lumbar plexus block)

• Anesthesia for thigh surgery, and hip fracture
  repair in combination with a para sacral nerve
  block
• Analgesia following THA, TKA and in the treatment
  of chronic hip pain.
• Consistent anesthesia in the distributions of the
  femoral, lat.cutaneous n. of the thigh, and the
  obturator nn.

Femoral Nerve Block

• Anesthesia for knee arthroscopy in combination
  with intra-articular local anesthesia
• Analgesia for femoral shaft fractures, ant.
  cruciate lig. reconstruction(ACL), and TKA in
  multimodal regimens.
• 3-in-1 block (femoral, LFC, obturator n.)
