Doctor dictates: Bilateral greater and lesser occipital nerve blocks were done
with a total of 12 mL (3 mL each) 0.25% bupivicaine with
1:200,000 epinephrine using a 25-gauge, 1-1/2-inch needle and
aseptic technique. Prior to the injection, a local wheal was
raised at each site with approximately 0.1 mL of 1% lidocaine
plain via a TB needle. The patient tolerated these injections
well and no bleeding was noted following the injections.
Greater is 64405-50, but what is the lesser occipital? Many thanks!
