Effective postoperative pain control was achieved without motor weakness, ensuring a smooth recovery for all patients involved.
Patients reported good pain relief with a median numerical rating scale score below 5 after the procedure, indicating the success of the approach.
Ultrasound-guided technique allowed for precise targeting of both the iliopsoas and subpectineal compartments, enhancing the safety of analgesia administration.
The dual-target FRONT block method shows promise for effective analgesia while preserving motor function, highlighting a need for larger studies to confirm results.
