An approximate expression for the Euclidean Green function of a massless scalar field in the spacetime of a multidimensional global monopole has been derived. Expressions for the vacuum expectation values 〈ϕ{sup 2}〉{sub ren} and 〈T{sub 00}〉{sub ren} have been derived by the dimensional regularization method. Comparison with the results obtained by alternative regularization methods is made.
