Summary

It is known that postoperative pain after thoracotomy or lobectomy is very severe, therefore, intraoperative or postoperative pain management using continuous thoracic epidural catheterization is suggested good option to prevent this complication.

The spread of local anesthetics is influenced by various factors including volume, location of needle insertion, speed of injection, patient position, age, weight and height. However, there are few studies about the effect of different patient position during thoracic epidural catheterization.

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of different patient position affecting thoracic epidurography.
