Anomalous Higher Branching Pattern of the Femoral Nerve: a Case Report with Clinical Implications [PDF]
Acta Medica, 2007 The femoral nerve usually divides into anterior and posterior branches below the inguinal ligament. In the present case, we report the anomalous higher branching pattern of the femoral nerve on both sides of a 52 year male cadaver.

Changes in the tumor necrosis factor-α level after an ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in elderly patients with a hip fracture [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2018 Background and objectives: An ultrasound guided femoral nerve block is an established analgesic method in patients with a hip fracture. Elevated cytokine levels correlate with poor patient outcomes after surgery.
