PROCEDURE

Single adductor canal block

The operated leg is slightly externally rotated and prepared for a block with 2% chlorhexidine and sterile dressing. The adductor canal is identified using ultrasound image at the mid-thigh level and after a subcutaneous injection of 2 ml of 1% lidocaine a total of 20 ml of 0'5% ropivacaine is injected into the canal using a 22 gauge ultrasound-visible needle. In the end, a sterile apposite is placed at the puncture site
