A study of variations of sciatic nerve

A sciatic nerve is nerve of choice in case of anesthesia and analgesia of lower limb as it supplies larger number of structures and it is simple, reliable and common in use. Sciatic nerve leaves the pelvis by passing through the greater sciatic foramen below piriformis muscle. This site also makes i...

Zusammenfassung:A sciatic nerve is nerve of choice in case of anesthesia and analgesia of lower limb as it supplies larger number of structures and it is simple, reliable and common in use. Sciatic nerve leaves the pelvis by passing through the greater sciatic foramen below piriformis muscle. This site also makes it prone for compression. Here, awareness for variations of sciatic nerve and its level of division serves as a very useful guide to prevent post procedure complications. The study was carried on donated human bodies; we had come to a conclusion which is far different from other studies…
