Özet

Patients who are treated for gunshot wounds may usually require multiple surgical interventions and long-term intensive care unit follow up due to multiple organ or extremity injuries. In this paper, we presented a 38-year-old male patient who had bilateral lower extremity fractures as the result of gunshot wounds and underwent surgical procedures for 33 times of which 1 was under general anesthesia, 9 spinal anesthesia, 9 "3-in- 1" block method and 3 femoral nerve blockage with 11 sedations within 27 months: This case was considered original as no information was available in the literature on how many times spinal anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks should be applied successively.
