Background : evaluation of effectiveness, postoperative analgesia hemodynamic effects, recovery profiles and degree of satisfaction of both parents and surgeons to ilioin-guinal and iliohypogastric nerve blocks performed with local anaesth-tics. bupivacaine alone and with fentanyl. Methods : sixty patients, undergoing groin surgery using sevoflurane nitrous oxide anaesthesia were included . Patients were randomly allocated into 3 equal groups (n =15). Group p received normal saline at the dose of 0.3- 0.4 ml/kg for local nerve block (placebo group). Group B received 0.25%. bupivacaine at the dose of 0.3- 0.4 ml/kg as a local anaesthetic for the nerve block . Group BF received 0.25% bupivacaing at the dose of 0.3-0.4ml/kg and fentanyl at the dose of 1 ^g kg as local anaesthetic for the nerve block . Pain was evaluated by the CHEOPS pain score, "Modified Children's Hospital Eastern Ontario Pain. Score". Recovery cariteria were assessed by Modified Aldrete Recovery Score.
