Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Twenty (ASA status I or II) children, ages 2 to 7 yr old, who were scheduled for a urologic surgery
  2. Children who needed caudal block for postoperative analgesia

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. if there were contraindications for caudal block including hypersensitivity to any local anaesthetics, bleeding diathesis, infections at the puncture sites, or pre-existing neurological disease.
  2. patients scheduled for penile surgery
