Peripheral Nerve Blockade

A sclerotome is an anatomical concept that defines an area of bone supplied by a single spinal nerve. Similar to the familiar dermatomes, sclerotomes provide an element of depth to the sensory innervation of the lower extremity based on the deep fascia as an embryologic boundary. Anatomical knowledge of sclerotomes can be used clinically in the diagnosis and treatment of pain and in the perioperative setting. Specifically, a modified version of the classic Mayo block is presented to highlight an active anatomical approach to peripheral nerve blockade. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 99(3): 232–235, 2009)

Disease Entity

Malignant melanoma, the leading cause of death from disease of the skin, often is found on the lower extremity. A thorough understanding of the disease entity is essential, because misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis can be fatal. In Part I of this two-part clinical and surgical review of malignant melanoma, the authors discussed etiology, risk factors, signs, symptoms, clinical features, and growth patterns. Part II places special emphasis on diagnosing malignant melanoma and differentiating it from other lesions of the lower extremity. Clinical staging of the tumor and the corresponding surgical criteria are presented from a podiatric medical standpoint.
