Introduction: Continuous spinal anesthesia for surgical repair of hip fracture in elderly patients has been shown to preserve hemodynamics better than general and single shoot spinal anesthesia. However, hypotension still occurs, even with continuous spinal anesthesia.

Aim: This study aimed to demonstrate that hypobaric bupivacaine is more effective in preserving hemodynamics than isobaric bupivacaine when patients are operated in lateral position.

Preoperative hypnosis for pain management after arthroscopic repair of anterior cruciate ligament.

Background: The practice of hypnoanalgesia in orthopedics is rare and the literature is poor.

Aim: The purpose of this pilot study was to verify the efficacy of hypnosis for the management of postoperative analgesia after arthroscopic repair of anterior cruciate ligament.

Methods: This was a prospective clinical trial over a period of 6 months (March - August 2015) including 25 patients scheduled for arthroscopic repair of anterior cruciate ligament under spinal anesthesia.

Adductor canal block: Effect of volume of injectate on sciatic extension.

Context: Spread of local anesthetic within adductor canal to peroneal and tibial nerves is described in literature. This spread could be volume-dependent.

Aims: In this study, we compared the diffusion of two volumes of 0.
