Summary

In breast reduction surgery, pain control is usually performed with tumescent anesthesia, thoracic epidural anesthesia, intercostal nerve blocks and paravertebral block applications. Tumescent anesthesia is also preferred by plastic surgeons because of the varying risk of thoracic epidural anesthesia and paravertebral block applications.

After the Erector spinae block was first described by Forero in 2016, it was reported to have been applied in many cases, including breast surgery.

It is considered to be a safer block because of the presence of paravertebral block-like activity and the location where the needle is guided away from the pleura. The investigators aimed to compare postoperative analgesia consumption, pain scores and patient satisfaction of erector spine block with tumescent anesthesia in patients who underwent reduction mammoplasty operation under general anesthesia in this double-blind prospective randomized study.
