Summary

The Era of using ultrasound guided blocks provides an attractive and more or less safe alternative to other techniques. Among these blocks is ultrasound-guided transverse abdominis plane block (USG-TAP block) that controls pain by local anesthetic injection into the neurofascial plane of the abdominal muscles. Ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block (USG-TPVB) is another technique in which local anesthetic is injected nearby the thoracic vertebra where spinal nerve emerges from the intervertebral foramina. It provides ipsilateral somatic and sympathetic blockade in many dermatomes around the injection site. The aim of this study is to verify which technique is more efficient in reducing the intra- and postoperative analgesic requirements in hepatic patients.
