{Abstract}: Awake combined spinal caudal anesthesia has been used as an anesthetic technique for longer-duration infraumbilical surgeries in infants. Literature on the safety and feasibility of this technique is limited. We share our experience with 27 infants undergoing longer-duration urologic surgery using awake combined spinal and caudal anesthesia without the use of systemic sedatives or inhalational agents. We describe our technique, safety considerations, and details surrounding the optimal timing of caudal catheter activation for prolongation of surgical anesthesia.
