Supra Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block Versus Ultrasound-guided Caudal Analgesia for Pediatrics Undergoing Anterior and Lateral Thigh Surgeries: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Sponsor: National Cancer Institute, Egypt
Summary
patients will then be randomized in the two groups. 1. Group C: in this group children will receive US-guided caudal analgesia (CA) after GA. The caudal block will be performed 2. Group B: in this group children will receive lower limb peripheral nerve blocks in the form of US-guided fascia iliaca Block.

Interventions
Fascia Iliaca Nerve Block
With the patient in the proper position, the skin is disinfected and the transducer positioned to identify the femoral artery and the iliopsoas muscle and fascia iliaca. The transducer is moved laterally until the sartorius muscle is identified. After a skin wheal is made, the needle is inserted in-plane
Caudal Block Anesthesia
The caudal block will be performed by visualizing the sacral hiatus at the level of the sacral cornu after placing the probe transversely obtaining a short axis view, two hyperechoic lines will appear between the sacral cornu the superficial line is the sacrococcygeal ligament
