2 Fig 1 IP USG anterior sciatic nerve block with needle adjacent to the transducer. AMM, adductor magnus muscle; F, femur; FA, femoral artery; FV, femoral vein; GMM, gluteus maximus muscle; SN, sciatic nerve. The smaller unlabelled arrows indicate the needle. The images were taken with a 2–5 MHz curvilinear transducer and S-nerve platform (SonoSite). The inset shows the needle insertion site adjacent to the transducer.

3 Fig 2 IP USG anterior sciatic nerve block with needle posterior to the transducer. AMM, adductor magnus muscle; F, femur; FA, femoral artery; FV, femoral vein; GMM, gluteus maximus muscle; SN, sciatic nerve. The smaller unlabelled arrows indicate the needle. The images were taken with a 2–5 MHz curvilinear transducer and S-nerve platform (SonoSite). The inset shows the needle insertion site posterior to the transducer.
