Ultrasound-Guided Blockade of the Lateral Cutaneous Branch of the Iliohypogastric Nerve to Differentiate Neuropathy From Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome: Cadaver Study and Initial Case Series
Ultrasound has demonstrated high accuracy for localization and injection guidance in the examination of LCBIN. Ultrasound-guided injection of local anesthetics may help to identify LCBIN neuropathy as a differential diagnosis in patients with suspected GTPS.
