Summary

Regional blocks as a part of multimodal analgesia can improve pain control in the postoperative period. The transversalis fascia plane (TFP) block can block the proximal portions of the T12 and L1 nerves, while the main advantage of the Quadratus Lumborum (QL) block is the possible extension of the local anesthetic beyond the transversus abdominis plane (TAP) plane spreading into the thoracic paravertebral space and anesthetizing both the lateral and anterior cutaneous branches from T7 to L1. the aim of this study is to compare effectiveness of ultrasound-guided transversalis fascia plane block to trans-muscular quadratus lumborum block in providing postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing unilateral inguinal hernia repair.
