Article Synopsis
- - The posterior femoral cutaneous nerve (PFCN) is important for understanding sensory issues in the gluteal region, especially due to risks from injuries and pressure ulcers.
- - During a routine anatomical dissection of a 56-year-old male cadaver, a significant connection between the PFCN and the inferior gluteal nerve (IGN) was identified, which is important for diagnostic and surgical procedures.
- - This connection could help improve nerve block procedures for surgeries related to the thigh, knee, and upper leg, as the motor response from the IGN can indicate how effectively the PFCN is blocked.
The deltoid is the preferred site for intramuscular injection (IMI) because of its easy accessibility for drug and vaccine administration. Government immunization advisories, standard anatomy textbooks, and researchers have proposed various injection techniques and sites, but specific guidelines are lacking for the administration of IMIs in the increasingly used deltoid site. This study analyzes the procedures of administering IMIs in the deltoid related to the neurovascular network underlying the muscle and proposes a preferred site with the least chance of injury.
