A Femoral /Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Block is frequently combined with blockade of the lateral femoral cutaneous, obturator, and sciatic nerves. This block is used for patients with complaints of pain, numbness, and/or tingling and weakness in the quadriceps with severe gait impairment and decreased sensation over the thigh and calf.
