Interventions

PROCEDURE

Local anesthesia

All patients will be then given adequate sedation with propofol and local anesthetic given by dermal infiltration in incision site and regional breast and axillary areas. The local anesthetic of choice will be 2 % lidocaine (Xylocaine) and 0.5% Bupivacaine (Marcaine) mixed with 7 % sodium bicarbonate and epinephrine (Bosmine)

PROCEDURE

General anesthesia

The method of general anesthesia for the GA group will be induced with fentanyl (1-2 μg/kg) and propofol (2.5 mg/kg). After placement of a laryngeal mask or endotracheal tube airway, anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane (end-tidal concentrations 1%-3%) in a 50% oxygen/nitrous oxide mixture.
