Are peripheral nerve blocks of the leg (femoralis in combination with anterior sciantic blockade) as sole anaesthetic technique an alternative to epidural anaesthesia;Ist die periphere nervenblockade des beines (femoralis- in kombination mit anteriorer ischiadikus-blockade) als alleinige anästhesietechnik eine alternative zur periduralanästhesie für arthroskopische eingriffe am kniegelenk?
