Entretanto, apesar desta área ser apontada como segundo melhor local para esta prática, tanto em adultos como em crianças, a técnica ainda mostra-se muito dolorosa em ambos.OBJETIVO. Estudar a localização, distribuição, trajeto e relação topográfica do nervo cutâneo lateral da coxa com a área recomendada para prática da injeção intramuscular, relacionando-os à dor decorrente de tal procedimento.MÉ… Show more

“…Significantly, Types II and III were distinguished after the LFCN passed the IL, while Type IV divided before it reached the IL. However, some trunks were further divided to give various numbers of branches; these were described as subtypes 'a', 'b' or 'c', as even up to four branches of the LFCN were observed [5]. The quantitative data of occurrence of particular branching patterns among male and female fetuses is presented in…”

Partimos del presupuesto de que la porción distal del musculo vasto lateral del muslo tiene una disminución de los ramos nerviosos cutáneos provenientes del nervio cutáneo lateral del muslo, favoreciendo así mayor efectividad técnica por el profesional que la desarrolla.…”
