    AbstractThis prospective study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of ilio-hypogastric nerve block for control of post appendicectomy pain in children. Forty-two children aged 3-15 years scheduled for appendicectomy were anaesthetized in the same way. After randomization, a preoperative ilio-hypogastric nerve block was performed in 21 patients. Twenty one were not blocked. The postoperative pain assessment showed a better analgesia in the blocked children group. Analgics were required less in group. Five inefficient blocks were recorded. No complications were noted. Ilio-hypogastric block was found to be safe and efficient for control of post-appendicectomy pain in most children.
