The Effective Injection Point of the Popliteal Region: A Cadaver Dissection Without Removing the Perineurium

The aim of this study was to determine the in-depth anatomical location of the neurovascular structures important for nerve block. Forty fresh specimens from 22 adult Korean cadavers were used for this study. The average angle and depth of the bifurcation point of the sciatic nerve (BC) was 18.7±3.6...
