A 78-year-old woman with a prosthetic hip dislocation underwent a pericapsular nerve group block for regional anesthesia. The hip spontaneously reduced before manual intervention, likely due to the block's analgesic and muscle-relaxing effects. Compared to other techniques, this block effectively targets hip innervation while sparing motor function.

Objective: We intended to research the efficacy of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block performed with preoperative ultrasonography (USG) in patients who underwent hip fracture repair under spinal anaesthesia and whether it affects the success of spinal anaesthesia.
Methods: The files of 100 patients were analysed, and 60 patients were enrolled in the study. The patients were assigned into two groups: Group P (n = 30) consisted of patients who underwent USG-guided PENG block before the start of surgery and the control group (Group C; n = 30) consisted of patients in whom tramadol infusion was initiated.

Background: Locoregional anesthesia is commonly used in orthopedic trauma surgery, particularly in elderly patients. We conducted a prospective, monocentric, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the anesthetic and analgesic efficacy of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block in patients on antithrombotic drugs undergoing hip fracture surgery, comparing it with femoral and obturator nerve block (FNB+ONB).
Methods: Forty patients were randomly allocated to receive a PENG block or FNB and ONB, both combined with wound infiltration (WI).
