About this trial

This prospective observational study aims to investigate the relationship between anatomical parameters-specifically the distance from the anus to the needle insertion point and the depth required to reach the pudendal nerve-during neurostimulation-guided pudendal nerve block and patients' age, height, and weight in children undergoing penile surgery.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Children aged 1-18 years

Disqualifiers

Patients with incomplete measurement data

Cases where successful nerve block cannot be performed or nerve stimulation is not detectable at currents ≥1.5 mA

Patients or parents/legal guardians who refuse pudendal nerve block

Patients with pelvic deformities or neuromuscular disorders
