Actual (reported)Sciatic nerve block is used routinely in ankle and foot surgery. It is applied often by a posterior approach at the popliteal fossa, near where the nerve divides into the common peroneal and tibial nerves. Due to the size of the sciatic nerve, the largest in the body, infiltration of anesthetic and onset of anesthesia can take a significant amount of time. This study hypothesizes that selectively blocking both the common peroneal and the tibial nerves distal to the bifurcation may result in a faster block onset than blockade of the sciatic nerve proximal to its bifurcation.
