-== Anatomy ==
+== Overview==
-A Femoral Nerve Block aims to deliver local anesthesia to the femoral nerve in the inguinal crease, between the fascia iliaca (superficial) and the psoas and iliacus muscles (deep).
+The femoral nerve block involves injecting local anesthetic adjacent to the femoral nerve just below the inguinal ligament to achieve peri-and postoperative analgesia for a variety of surgical interventions, to include anterior cruciate ligament repair, patella surgery and/or quadriceps tendon repair. The femoral nerve block is often used in combination with obturator and sciatic nerve blocks for various lower extremity surgeries.
-== Technique ==
+==Anatomy==
-== Complications ==
+==Indications==
-== Uses ==
+Regional blocks may be considered as an alternative to neuraxial anesthesia when neuraxial anesthesia is contraindicated. In addition, blocks contribute to a multimodal anesthetic/analgesic strategy thereby lessening the burden of general anesthetics and systemic analgesics such as opioids.<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Albrecht|first=E.|last2=Chin|first2=K.
