Posterior Lumbar Plexus Block in Children: A New Anatomical Landmark

Abstract: The sulcus formed by the division between the longissimus and the iliocostal muscles is a simple, direct, and easy-to-identify landmark for posterior lumbar plexus block in children.

“…The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve can also be accessed posteriorly. In 2007, an imaging and clinical study (Mello et al, ) established a new direct landmark‐based posterior lumbar blockade, which was clinically trialed in 100 pediatric patients aged 1–15 years with effective anesthetic outcomes. Likewise, localization of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve is best performed using anatomical landmarks as nerve stimulators cannot help to identify the cutaneous nerve (Miller, ).…”

“…Despite the continuing benefits of regional anesthesia and need for more effective and reliable peripheral techniques in pediatric patients (Bosenberg, , Marhofer et al, ), there is a paucity of data on surface anatomy and landmarks during various stages of the postnatal development, and hence the absence of more appropriate techniques for the different age groups of children (Mello et al, ). Existing techniques are based on measurements from fixed anatomical points, and are hence limited when applied to children of various ages (Hong et al, , Brasher et al, ).…”

“…The axillary approach to the brachial plexus was described by Jong in 1961. The landmark described by Mello 13 was used to place the catheter near the lumbar plexus. The approaches used for the sciatic nerve included: the approach described by Labat (known as the classical approach), lateral (Pandin) 14 , and in the lateral aspect of the thigh (described by Zetlaoui and Bouaziz, called popliteal) 15 .…”

“…A abordagem axilar ao plexo braquial foi a descrita por Jong em 1961. Para o posicionamento do cateter junto ao plexo lombar foi usada a referên-cia descrita por Mello 13 . As abordagens do bloqueio do nervo ciático foram: a descrita por Labat (denominada clássica), a lateral (Pandin) 14 e a realizada na face lateral da coxa (descrita por Zetlaoui e Bouaziz, chamada de poplíteo) 15 .…”
