Abstract

Nerves of the gluteal region are presented based on our unique and simple landmark technique: define the points-of-optimal visibility (POV) of the nerves of the gluteal region by external (ELM) and internal (ILM) landmarks, define the nerves by high-resolution sonography, and follow them to whatever nerve segment you want to assess or where it should be blocked.
