Abstract:

This case report highlights the use of ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve block (PNB) as an anesthetic technique for a high-risk 75-year-old male patient with a history of coronary artery disease undergoing tension band wiring of the patella. The patient presented with a fracture following a fall and had multiple comorbidities, including diabetes, hypertension, and reduced cardiac function (EF 35%). A combination of sciatic, femoral, lateral femoral cutaneous, and obturator nerve blocks was administered using ultrasound guidance to ensure precise localization and minimize risks associated with central neuraxial anesthesia. The procedure resulted in effective regional anesthesia, perioperative hemodynamic stability, and successful surgical outcomes. This case underscores the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided PNB in managing lower extremity surgeries in critically ill and high-risk patients.
