Abstrakt: | Objectives: To determine the safety and efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve injections. Methods: A retrospective chart review of US-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve injections at our institution was performed. Results: Of 221 US-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve injections, 100% achieved technical success, with no postprocedure complications. Sixty-eight percent of patients with follow-up reported symptom relief. Most patients with no relief had suboptimal preprocedure screening. Conclusions: With appropriate screening, our technique of US-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve injection is safe and effective. (© 2017 by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine.) |
