Abstract
To explore the recent advances in the use of ultrasound for lower extremity blocks, including approaches to the lumbar and sacral plexus blocks. Procedures of the lower extremity often require blocks of the lumbar and sacral plexuses. The use of ultrasound offers some advantages, including the possibility to directly visualize the distribution of local anesthetics. Lower extremity blocks under ultrasound guidance often require advanced skills because of the depth of target nerves. This review summarizes the recent advances in the use of ultrasound guidance over traditional techniques.
