Fig. 4.

Ultrasound image showing anatomic relations between external oblique muscle (EO), internal oblique muscle (IO) and transversus abdominis muscle (TA). Arrow is depicting neurovascular bundle in the course of the ilioinguinal nerve, the injection for should be performed in its plane. (BA) bowel air. L – lateral, M – medial

Ultrasound image showing anatomic relations between (IS) ischial spine, sacrospinous ligament (arrows) and internal pudendal artery (hatched arrow). The pudendal nerve is deep lies adjunct to the internal pudendal artery. L – lateral, M – medial

Fig. 6.

Ultrasound image shows anatomic relations between adductor muscles. The anterior branch of the obturator nerve lies within fascia (arrowheads) between the adductor longus muscle (AL) and adductor brevis muscle (AB). The posterior branch of the obturator nerve lies within fascia (hatched arrows) between the adductor brevis (AB) muscle and adductor magnus muscle (AM). L – lateral, M – medial
